Railway Children is seeking proposals for research study on family reunification and reintegration. The goal of this program is to protect children alone and at risk, specifically children living on the streets.
Commissioned by Railway Children and supported by Comic Relief, the concept of this research is the result of the following learning questions: a) what are the constraining and supportive factors contributing to the home placement and reintegration of children b) what are the good practices to deal with the constraining factors and c) how best to maximize the supportive factors for the child’s reintegration.
Objectives-
- To understand the process of reintegration, identify innovative methods to address constraining factors and to incorporate supportive factors in reintegration strategies.
- To understand from the children and family what works well for reintegration.
- To document case studies of successful reintegration through Railway Children supported interventions.
- To offer recommendations to state and non-state stakeholders to design effective reintegration plans for the children.
Research will be conducted in the Indian states of West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu
