The Task Force on Foster Care of the Transforming Children's Care Global Collaborative Platform held the second spotlight webinar series on identifying foster carers on 5 May 2022.

The aim of this conference is to share news, good practice etc. in the field of training and accompanying kinship caregivers.

This report reflects on the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on children. It compiles information gathered from 25 countries across Europe, and provides recommendations for improving public policies in the short and long-term to support better outcomes for children and families, including children in alternative care or at risk of separation.

The purpose of this webinar is to shed light on the specific experiences and issues of unaccompanied and separate girls in the European Response.
