The Online Toolkit
So, you’re interested in developing a child-friendly neighbourhood and implementing one of the schemes or interventions or have ideas for how to make your local neighbourhood or area around a school better for the communities. But, how do you go about making this happen?
Follow the Online Toolkit’s guidelines/procedures to make an impact in your local neighbourhoods/areas around a school. The Toolkit uses examples from the pilot case studies conducted at two schools in Bangladesh.
