UK Partners

Staff from leading professional services from PriceWaterhouse Coopers have visited partner organisations in Brazil, Ethiopia and Tanzania over the last few months to give expert pro-bono advice on financial management. These partners had asked for financial advice and training from ChildHope and PwC seconded 12 staff to assist with this request.

ChildHope is collaborating on this unique project with another UK charity, EveryChild, who is also benefiting from PwC services. The secondment marks an innovation in which way charities work with private sector companies. The scheme encourages collaborative working between two charities that work in similar areas and will help improve understanding in a leading company of international development issues. The secondees, who are all members of Pricewaterhouse Coopers Emerging Leaders Programme, are gaining a valuable insight into international development.

DFID/CSO Children and Youth Network

ChildHope is a founding member of the new DFID/CSO Children and Youth Network, launched on 8th October 2007, and co-ordinates its research sub-committee. We recently compiled a response to DFID’s consultation on research on behalf of the network.

Keeping Children Safe Coalition

Since 2001, a number of international aid and development agencies, along with the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), have been working together to share experience and knowledge and to identify a common approach to child protection.  These agencies make up the Keeping Children Safe Coalition.  ChildHope is a member of the Steering Committee.

Our goal is to increase the safeguards offered to children, through improved child protection policies and practice within the agencies and authorities that work with children.

Further details are available at the Keeping Children Safe website.
