title: Children at risk--a presentation of a Nordic project.
abstract: In 1991, money was granted by Nordisk Ministerråd to prepare a Nordic project concerning children at risk. Since then, preparations have gone forward to organize a project focussing on 10-year olds' experiences of risk and protective factors in their daily lives. The project combines data from fairly large cohorts or samples with in-depth studies concerning specific analyses of risk and protective factors, life events, children's experiences with various helping services and child welfare, children's school environment etc. A project group with participants from all the Nordic countries has been established, and three meetings have been arranged during 1992. The Nordic project as such aims to started fully 1993.
