At a time when expectations and assumptions about the delivery of
services to children and adolescents are being reconfigured - for
example, around the rights of children and adolescents as young
citizens - adults are seeking to ensure that they deliver services
in creative and empowering ways, ensuring that the opinions of
young people are actively solicited and encouraged. Action methods
- communication methods using the body as well as speech - provide
non-threatening ways of communicating which can be understood by
children of all ages and from many cultures. This book places
action methods in a theoretical, technical and political framework
and documents examples of good practice. Discussion of the
application of action methods to work with young people focuses on
differing issues and populations, for example children and
adolescents who face life-threatening illnesses, or those involved
in peer counselling in schools. Contributions from several
different countries emphasise the wide potential of action methods
for use with young people. This book provides a comprehensive and
wide-ranging resource for those interested in exploring and
understanding why action methods are particularly useful when
working with young people.
