“terre des hommes Germany had commissioned the organization ASK to conduct a study on “children on the move”, focusing on issues of children who travel from their native places to different destinations to work in domestic sector and in construction sector. ASK conducted the study by interviewing 25 children both at source and destination points. The study was supported by well researched secondary data, and came up with a list of recommendations which have been very helpful for the campaign Destination Unknown to move forward! Overall we are very happy with the way the study was conducted by ASK and the professional approach of the 2 researchers!”
