What will you learn?
This training will briefly refresh on the key areas of Safeguarding good practice, including key terms and definitions, Safeguarding standards, and the Safeguarding cycle. We will then use discussion of case studies to apply this knowledge to scenarios.
Participants are welcome to submit their own case studies for discussion if they would like to discuss a particular area of practice (email to advice@hubcymruafrica.org.uk)
There will be time for questions and discussion. We will share resources and templates to underpin best practice in prevention, response and reporting.
Organisations who are applying for the Welsh Government/WCVA Wales Africa funding stream need to have completed a Safeguarding training (Essentials, or Refresher) in the last 2 years to be eligible for a grant. For people who have not yet completed a Hub Cymru Africa (or equivalent) Safeguarding training course, please register for Safeguarding Essentials Training on 20th February 2024.
This training will take place online via Zoom, and is a participatory training.
