Primary Prevention Framework Introductory Learning Package - Updated 2024

This introductory prevention learning package has been developed by the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action. The package is designed to strengthen participants’ overall understanding of primary prevention in Child Protection in Humanitarian Action.

The decision to use this prevention learning package should be based on an analysis of current capacities and the identification of specific learning needs that align with this package’s objectives.

The prevention learning package is designed to be implemented in a flexible way in diverse humanitarian and learning settings. It takes into account the challenges of humanitarian settings, where time and resources may be limited, as well as considerations in relation to infectious disease outbreak restrictions, and access more generally. The package therefore includes training guidance and easily adaptable materials for remote training contexts, using common video communication platforms.

This package is aligned to the Primary Prevention Framework for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action, 2019 Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action and also the Child Protection in Humanitarian Action Competency Framework.

The learning package is designed to contribute towards strengthening the capacity of practitioners in attaining Level 1, 2, and 3 of the CPHA Competency Framework for all the competencies that are relevant to prevention programming. It should be noted that completing the training will not guarantee Level 1, 2, and 3 of all the relevant CPHA Competency Framework competencies, as additional actions will be required to transfer learning into practice.
