Examine key definitions related to CAAFAG
Thousands of girls and boys continue to be recruited and used in conflicts worldwide. While progress has been made in some areas, challenges are still faced in designing and implementing programmes to prevent and respond to the needs of CAAFAG.
This six-week course from the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action will introduce the key concepts of programme design for CAAFAG and contextualise your design within the legal and normative framework.
Explore each step of the project cycle
Guided through the five steps of the project cycle, you’ll learn to meet requirements set out in the CAAFAG programme development guidelines.
You’ll examine background information, context analysis, programme design and strategic planning, implementation and monitoring, and learning and evaluation, and discover how to implement each step.
Design programmes for prevention, release, and reintegration
On this course, you’ll learn how to develop gender sensitive, context specific programmes that incorporate the perspectives of CAAFAG.
You’ll explore programme design for the prevention of recruitment, the facilitation of release and identification, and the promotion of reintegration.
This unique focus will equip you with the skills to create effective programmes and evaluate and adapt future designs.
Improve your project implementation skills
Project implementation not only includes programme design, but broader considerations including budgeting, human resource management, and child safeguarding.
You’ll be introduced to a range of implementation and monitoring strategies to ensure all activities, data, and participants are treated with respect and meet professional guidelines and finish this course having enhanced your knowledge of programme design within the context of CAAFAG.
This course is designed for child protection managers or advisors in charge of designing, implementing, reviewing, and supporting programmes for CAAFAG.
It is intended to further the knowledge of practitioners with prior experience in child protection and programme development. This may include those working in international and national NGO, UN agencies, and representatives of government institutions.
