This webinar featured Rebecca Smith, Global Head of Child Protection Programmes at Save the Children International, and Geoffrey Oyat, Regional Child Protection Advisor, at Save the Children International, who discussed the evolution of programs supporting family-based care and children without appropriate care, including unaccompanied and separated children, over the past thirty years. The session explored lessons learned, emerging trends, and future directions in this field, aligning with the UK Government’s recent commitment to prioritize international care reform. This webinar was part of the University of Kent Centre for Child Protection’s ‘Critical Conversations in Child Protection’ series, which connects child protection professionals across disciplines to the latest research, practice, and lived experiences.
