Research sites about children
Youth Mentoring Publications (Public/Private Ventures)
In 1988, intrigued by the potential of mentoring, but concerned about a lack of solid information, P/PV developed an extensive mentoring research agenda. Our goal was to see whether "created" adult/youth relationships could, in fact, have positive impacts on healthy adolescent development.
The State of the World's Children 2000 (UNICEF)
The State of the World's Children 2000 seeks to fan the flame that burned so brilliantly a decade ago when world leaders adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989 and then confirmed their commitments for children and adolescents at the 1990 World Summit for Children.
