Project (1)
The purpose of the project is to improve the well-being of children and young people and, in the long term, strengthen children's opportunities to master their lives so that they educate, work, get good health and avoid social problems. The goal of the project will be reached by establishing an infrastructure consisting of:
• Regular measurements of well-being through SDQ supplemented with standardized national tests from school
• An intervention catalog with well-documented and easy-to-use interventions that foster carers can use to improve the childrens well-being and academic skills.
