Level 2: either the post holder will have access to personal data about children and/or young people as part of their work; or the post holder will be working in a ‘regulated’ position (accountant, barrister, solicitor, legal executive); therefore a police check will be required (at ‘standard’ level in the UK or equivalent in other countries).
Background 项目背景
Save the Children (SC) has been implementing projects in China since the 1980s. The China Programme was relocated to Kunming in 1995 and Beijing in 1999. When the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Administration of Activities of Overseas Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in the Mainland of China came into force from January 1, 2017, SC was one of the first organizations to renew its registration in accordance with the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Administration of Activities of Overseas Non-Governmental Organizations within the Territory of China.
In terms of the work on youth development, SC has been implementing youth empowerment programmes for vulnerable young women and men since 2012. We started the first Adolescent Skills for Successful Transitions (ASST) project in Shanghai targeted at technical and vocational education and training (TVET) students, and gradually expanded the programme to Jiangsu Province, Guangdong Province, Sichuan Province, Yunnan Province and Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Ten years' rich experience in operating youth empowerment programme across the country makes SC a leading organization in China to enhance the resilience of young women and men who are from migrant, rural or low-income families.
The current phase of the programme runs from 2022 to 2024 in Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong Province and Sichuan Province respectively.
