ABOUT THIS COURSE

Skip About this course
Globally, an unprecedented 131 million people are affected by humanitarian
crises worldwide. Children, who constitute just under half of the affected
population, are particularly vulnerable in these situations, which present grave
risks to their physical health and psychological wellbeing.

This course examines how children’s social environments at different levels,
such as the family, community and societal levels, influence children’s
adversity, development and resilience. Course participants will engage in
critical thought about current international child protection practice and how
to strengthen it. The course will invite participants to identify opportunities
for using the learning from science and practice, to enrich current child
protection approaches in humanitarian settings.

This course is aimed at child protection practitioners who work internationally
in humanitarian settings and is also designed for those who want to learn more
about, or start working in, the sector. The course is not intended to provide a
comprehensive introduction to child protection programming in humanitarian
settings. Instead, it focuses on select areas that are ripe for enrichment.
