As parents, caregivers, and educators, our primary responsibility is to keep children safe and protected from harm. However, it’s not always easy to identify potential threats or know how to respond appropriately. This e-book is designed to equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to safeguard the children in your care. It covers a range of topics, from recognizing signs of abuse and neglect to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children to grow and thrive.
The Child Protection Network of Denmark has throughout its sessions brought together a team of experts in child protection who have shared their insights, experiences, and practical tips to outline the issues and challenges of child protection globally. This manual contains those insights and can be will provide you with valuable information to ensure that you have a holistic understanding of child safety efforts in primarily the global south.
We hope you find this e-book informative and useful in your efforts to promote child safety and wellbeing.
