In this final chapter, the authors identify three areas where there are gaps to fill in order to improve crisis response for children. These can be summarised in the following three disparities: first, the gap between internal and external mechanisms of complaints or communication; second, the gap between response at the crisis site and recipient countries’ response; and last, the distance between practitioners and academics.
It is argued that if these gaps can be overcome, holistic results, based on knowledge and sound analysis, with practical relevance ensuring the best interest of the child can be achieved.
