This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This edited
collection explores the background and implementation of the Nordic
Barnahus (or 'Children's House') model - recognised as one of the
most important reforms related to children who are the victims of
crime in the Nordic region. This book discusses both its potential
to affect change and the challenges facing it. The model was
introduced as a response to a growing recognition of the need for
more integrated and child-centred services for children exposed to
violence and sexual abuse. In the Barnahus structure, different
professions work together to ensure that victimized children
receive help and treatment and that their legal rights are met.
This original study is organised into four broad themes:
child-friendliness, support and treatment; the forensic child
investigative interview; children's rights perspectives; and
interagency collaboration and professional autonomy. Each themed
section includes in-depth chapters from different Nordic countries,
outlining and analysing the practice and outcomes of the
collaborative work engaged in by Barnahus from different
perspectives. The introductory and concluding chapters offer a
comparative lens useful for policy and practice implementation
within the Nordic welfare state context and beyond, ensuring this
book has global academic and practical appeal.
