This book is part of a resource kit that guides the planning and implementation of a children’s resilience programme. With this material we aim to contribute to the on-going effort to deliver quality programmes for and with children, to create lasting change and improve the lives of children and their caregivers. The activities described here aim to help children build strength and resilience so they can cope positively with difficult life situations. The material has special focus on the impact of armed conflicts, disasters, abuse and exploitation and living in a community with a high rate of HIV.
