-
The project developed an EU Reference Tool which sets out the body of EU law and policy which relates to unaccompanied. The EU Reference Document should serve as an important support for policy makers and practitioners alike.
-
The project mapped how actors work, individually and in cooperation with each other, in four countries in the EU (the Netherlands, Italy, Sweden and the UK). National reports set out the findings in each country, identifying challenges and highlighting noteworthy practices.
-
A comparative report identifies common challenges across the four countries and national practices from one country that might inspire good practice across the region.
-
The project developed five practical tools addressing key aspects of actors’ work together. Each tool has been developed by a national partner and the CONNECT tools aim to increase actors’ skills and stimulate cooperation between them and be used by actors in other jurisdictions. They can be used individually or in a complementary way across a number of issues, including: first encounter, reception, guidance to actors working with children, promoting child participation, and ensuring decision-making procedures better fulfil the rights of the child to be heard.
-
The mapping and the tools both inform the targeted recommendations for action and priority areas for further work, nationally and at European level.
