Movement growth

Since the concept was first presented to a group of experts, we have been laying the groundwork and consulting with the growing number of experts within the network. They have helped us set out our goal of reaching 100 million children in 100 countries by 2015 and lay out the plan for achieving this.

Consultative processes:

For each of our strategic themes, we have engaged with the experts in our network in a global consultative process to develop key material and take key decisions. Below you will see the evolution of core ideas and concepts that have paved the way for the creation of the strategy plan.
