English Children's Respectful Reflections of the Rights and Lives of their Kenyan Peers: A Grounded Theory Study.

In 2002 a UK Government initiative enabled the fostering of links between UK school children and school children in Low and Middle Income Countries through the shared <italic>Just Like You</italic> project about health and rights. This manuscript reports English children's perspectives on the lives of their peers in Kenya, whose school link began in 2007. Data were gathered and analysed in 2014 via six focus groups with 132 children.

Respectful reflection comprises three categories; <italic>being similar</italic>,<italic> living differently</italic> and <italic>finding the strengths</italic>. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
