Draws on experiences from an international project, from the work of a child protection agency and from services for endangered, deprived, disadvantaged, and disabled children, to consider how the reform of provision for children (CWR) is occurring in Bulgaria, a country in line to join the EU in 2007. Examines a model being used to try to influence the development of these services, the role of international experts and NGOs, and the case for and against compulsory conditionality in these processes.
