Introduction: From 2015 to 2016, about 1.3 million refugees arrived in Europe. Half of them were children under 18. The combination of (specially forced) migration and adolescence increases the risk of psychological problems among refugees including asylum-seeking children and adolescents (ASCA). Therefore, along with the significant increase in the number of refugees, investigating effective ways to improve their health status has increased. The planned project aims to improve self-care (SC)/self-development (SD) among AS(C)A.

Method: With the long-term goal of improving well-being and quality of life, this multi-method study aims to develop a SC/SD intervention guideline for AS(C)A. The project will focus on three main work packages (WP): 1. assessment of needs and knowledge concerning SC/SD; 2. development of a guideline to promote SC/SD among AS(C)A: and 3. assessment of its fidelity, reliability, and validity. For the first WP, an intra-triangulation approach including three qualitative methods (in-depth interviews, focus group discussions and photographic means (photovoice)) will be used. Data will be analyzed using open/axial coding. The results of the first stage will be utilized for developing the guideline in the second WP. The guideline fidelity will be assessed based on the National Institutes of Health Behavior Change Consortium fidelity framework in the last WP.

Discussion: Empowering AS(C)A with SC/SD skills can help them to sustain their well-being and better manage the challenges in their new situation. When successfully implemented, a guideline will be developed to support all individuals involved in planning, managing, and promoting health among AS(C)A that can be used to implement SC/SD programs in practice.
