The most effective child selection committee is one that represents all of the different social groups in the community. Individuals on the committee might be former starter group members, working group members, or representatives from the parents, children, youth, or other groups.
The child selection committee also represents minority groups (other religious or ethnic groups) and demonstrates care for the most vulnerable. The committee will work with WV staff.
The committee is responsible for selecting children for the life of the programme, and may choose to develop some local child selection criteria.
