How to Support Kinship Care: Global launch of the Spanish and Portuguese guidance

Family for Every Child

Date: December 4, 2025

Time: 15:00 - 16:00 UTC

In 2025, Family for Every Child members in Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala and Paraguay translated the Global Kinship Care Guidance - 'How to support kinship care: Lessons learnt from around the world' into Spanish and Portuguese.

To officially launch the new versions of the guidance, their members will jointly host this webinar on 4 December. They will discuss kinship care, exploring the concept of family in a broader sense and aiming to prevent the unnecessary separation of children from their original context and their institutionalisation.

  • Alejandra Rodríguez (Enfoque Niñez, Paraguay)
  • Stella Duque Cuesta (Taller de Vida, Colombia)
