About [Edit]
BICE is based on a Christian anthropological vision and contributes to the circulation, training and promotion of children's and adolescents' rights along the following lines:
An original vision of children's development :
BICE is fighting for the integral development of children and encourages their active involvement in their own development and that of their environment. In this perspective, BICE mobilises civil society and seeks to influence social policy in favour of the dignity and higher interests of children.
A constant struggle for and with children :
In accordance with the International Convention on the Rights of the Child, BICE promotes the rights and responsibilities of children, the unconditional respect for them as people, for their family, their culture, the community to which they belong and their religion.
Long-term far-reaching action :
BICE emphasises the psycho-social and spiritual needs of children: education, family environment, sense of responsibility, self-confidence and spiritual development. It is for this reason that it undertakes actions through middle and long-term projects, which guarantee continuity of achievements beyond its periods of intervention.
THREE LINES OF ACTION :
- These three principles are structured on three principal lines of action.
Research :
- The BICE R&D platform develops a proactive reflection, circulates and exchanges ideas and constructive and innovative approaches.
Advocacy :
- BICE raises awareness and mobilises civil society, influences social policy on children and lobbies alongside other NGOs and partners to promote children's rights.
Commitment in the field :
- BICE develops programmes and projects in the field in its concern to integrate contributions from both research and its advocacy principles.
