Handbook on Planning Children and Youth’s Protection Through the Area Strategic Planning Process

The ‘Handbook on Planning Children and Youth’s Protection Through the Area Strategic Planning Process’ integrates theory with practice through three learning module sections designed to help ChildFund staff strengthen their programs using methods that promote child and youth protection. The primary focus is on the Area Strategic Planning process, but the core content should also inform project design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Each module presents key concepts mixed with interactive exercises. At the end of each module, a practical field exercise is provided to help participants apply new skills and information. Each module contains a Child Protection Practice Standard. These three practice standards are aligned with ChildFund’s Core Values, Area of Excellence and Core Outcomes. The standards provide helpful guidance for ensuring that child protection risks are being addressed through ChildFund programming.
