As part of the Global Campaign on Children’s Care Reform, the UK government is encouraging countries to strengthen families, expand safe and nurturing family-based alternative care, and progressively end the use of institutions to care for children.
Countries that sign the Charter are encouraged to make their own commitments describing specific actions they will take to realise the aims of the Charter.
This guidance document aims to support governments to design ambitious, measurable, and context-specific commitments that align with the Charter’s principles. It includes practical criteria, examples, and participatory approaches to ensure commitments are realistic, well-resourced, and responsive to children’s needs.
