What will you learn?

The Inter-Agency Toolkit: Preventing and Responding to Child Labour in Humanitarian Action and accompanying learning package were released by the Child Labour Task Force in 2022. The Child Labour Task Force of the Alliance in collaboration with the Global CP AoR would like to offer you a free, online learning opportunity to further explore the guidance and tools to strengthen overall understanding of preventing and responding to child labour in humanitarian action.
