This first edition of the Boys on the Move handbook for participants targets younger adolescent boys and has been rolled out successfully in Greece, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia.
Boys on the Move works to provide potentially life-saving information and build competencies in boys and young men experiencing changing and challenging circumstances. The program is based on a non-formal curriculum designed for unaccompanied and separated male adolescents displaced by conflict, poverty or related causes. It is delivered over ten sessions that each address various issues that they face during their migration journeys, including topics such as sexuality education, money, emotions and managing healthy relationships.
For more information, see the Boys on the Move brochure and the Boys on the Move Facilitator Book (1st edition).
Second editions of the Boys on the Move handbooks for facilitators and participants, targetting older adolescent boys and young men, have been developed by UNFPA and UNICEF and rolled out successfully in Italy.
