In 2022, Coram International prepared this discussion paper on transitioning from care in Belize for the Inter-American Development Bank.
This project included both primary and secondary research to create a report identifying (i) contextual issues in Belize that may influence the effectiveness of existing services to support youth to transition to post-care, (ii) capacity gaps within the proposed protection system to prepare and support youth adequately to transition to post-care, and (iii) recommendations to strengthen the services to support youth to transition to post-care. Coram International prepared this report, in close consultation with the government of Belize and financed by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).
