SynopsisEmpowering Children is especially designed for field practitioners seeking ways to encourage young people particularly the marginalized to become more involved in changing their circumstances. Through dozens of exercises and lessons, the book presents a variety of practical methods for engaging children in the development process from assessments to evaluations. Discussions on issues such as personal empowerment, self-esteem, problem analysis, and child protection can equip leaders to help children serve as agents of change who understand how valuable they are. The book concludes with preparations for a community child participation plan. From a Christian perspective, the realization that all children have dignity and are created in the image of God helps us to see that every child's input is valuable. The Bible's concepts of community, church, and mission further help us to see that God not only uses kids in his wonderful plan, but that he also wants all of his children male, female, young, and old to participate in his work in the world.", Empowering Children is especially designed for field practitioners seeking ways to encourage young people--particularly the marginalized--to become more involved in changing their circumstances.
