During this workshop you will be introduced to the Courage Child Protection Toolkit and Community Engagement Process. This includes understanding the disempowering nature of child protection challenges, and the equally empowering nature of solving them at a community level. Delegates will be taken through a range of exercises with supporting literature and toolkit elements which will assist them in:
- Defining a community vision for children
- Identifying, understanding, and prioritising child protection challenges
- Moving from disempowered to empowered child protection
- Understanding child protection and safeguarding processes
- Identifying and working with our community child protection partners
- From rights, to responsibilities to meaningful behaviour change
- Developing an empowered action plan
Templates will be sent to delegates prior to the workshop. All Courage toolkit materials are available online for free download, or a printed version can be purchased at cost price. Please see www.couragechildprotection.com (these materials are not required for the workshop).
The workshop will be facilitated by Deirdre Blackie – CEO Courage Child Protection
