This curriculum was developed with the DRC Ministry of Social Affairs (MINAS) and various key stakeholders involved in child protection in the DRC including UNICEF, War Child, the REEJER network of NGOs working with street-children, and other members of the National Child Protection Working Group. The course is based on a set of core para social worker competencies, that were adapted in-country in a participatory process, from the Global Social Service Workforce Alliance’s global core para-social worker (PSW) competencies. The training is organized into six modules that can be provided together or separately, depending on user needs.

Module One: Introduction to PSW functions as they relate to child protection in the DRC;
