Empowering Care Leavers in Jordan - Jordanian Civic Activists Toolkit II: Case Studies of Jordanian Advocacy Campaigns

Summary

This case study highlights the importance of partnering with others to build a more comprehensive understanding and response to complex issues that face society.
The Information and Research Center – King Hussein Foundation (IRCKHF) has a long history of researching and advocating for children and youth’s rights. The idea for this advocacy effort was conceived based on the concluding observations of the Committee of the Rights of the Child (CRC) to the Jordanian Government in 214. Specifically,the CRC's recommendations to address
the discrimination of the most vulnerable orphans,the children and youth deprived of family ties. The collaboration with Sakeena Association enabled IRCKHF to gain in depth knowledge of the discrimination patterns that affect this vulnerable population. This in turn informed and made it possible to refine the research tools used throughout the advocacy. Stakeholders reported that
Empowering Care Leavers in Jordan campaign is timely and of great relevance to the Jordanian community. This advocacy provides an excellent example of the importance of indepth research for advancing advocacy efforts. This case illustrates how to:
• explore how an issue manifests in society in terms of content,structure and culture
• utilize a variety of different research methods,including participatory peer research with primary stakeholders themselves,the female and male care leavers (youth deprived of family ties)
• channel research findings to guide and move advocacy forward.
