Abstract
Childwatch International was formed in 1992 in Norway. It has concentrated its work on identifying needs for international research collaboration and information exchange on children's issues, and finding adequate ways of responding to those needs. Another objective has been to initiate and coordinate international research and information projects on children's living conditions and the implementation of children's rights. This article reports on a meeting held by the directors of Childwatch International key institutions within the field of child research to define further lines of collaboration among the institutions of the network and to promote the results from child research.
