Ethical Approaches to Gathering Information from Children and Adolescents in International Settings: Guidelines and Resources

republished courtesy of Horizons/Population Council and FHI/Impact
The publication is designed for program managers and researchers who work with children and adolescents, including those affected by HIV/AIDS. Recognizing that methods for working with adults cannot simply be transferred to young people, this new resource identifies challenges that confront investigators and program implementers working with children and adolescents and proposes practical approaches to dealing with them. It provides case studies that highlight the roles of research and program staff in ensuring that child-related activities are conducted ethically.
Topics include:
Children's participation
Seeking meaningful informed consent among children
Confidentiality and anonymity
Avoiding stigma

This publication was developed under the leadership of a steering committee composed of representatives of USAID, UNICEF, Horizons/Population Council, and FHI/Impact.

"Ethical Approaches to Gathering Information from Children and Adolescents in International Settings: Guidelines and Resources" is also available on the Population Council's website at: www.popcouncil.org/horizons/childrenethics.html.

Print copies will be available in October 2005. To request a print copy, contact [email protected] with your mailing address.

We hope you find this publication useful and relevant, and welcome your feedback.
