Beneficiaries of the Project for Full Welfare and Child Protection: The Project embraces various programmes and activities aimed at improving the social welfare programmes available for children in need of special protection, in particular juveniles, street children and children from poverty-stricken and needy families.

2. Protection and rehabilitation of street children

290. The Programme for the Protection and Rehabilitation of Street Children began in September 2001 and was enlarged with the construction of a centre, known as the Safe Childhood Centre, in the Capital Municipality. In 2003, it was extended to the governorate of Aden. The following table shows the number of children who, in 2001, benefited from the Safe Childhood Centre for the Protection and Rehabilitation of Street Children. The role of the Project is restricted to the field of training and retraining for personnel working in homes for male juveniles. Homes for female juveniles (delinquents) are directly subsidized by the previous project.
