This book critically reviews the innovative approach to health education known as Child-to-Child, now being used in over 80 countries. This approach advocates children being seen as active promoters and not just receivers of health.

Lessons are drawn from its successes and failures; implications made clear for policy makers, planners, implementers and evaluators; and recommendations suggested for future action and research
