ICI has developed awareness-raising materials on child protection and safeguarding. These materials cover the essentials for understanding child protection and safeguarding and include an overview of children's rights, definitions of child abuse, child protection and child safeguarding, as well as examples of prohibited and permitted behaviour.

This awareness-raising kit is a valuable resource for practitioners and facilitators who want to raise awareness about child protection and safeguarding issues within programs or systems aimed at preventing child labour. These materials can be used in various situations, including community awareness sessions and training for staff who regularly interact with children.

These tools are currently only available in French. The English version is under production and will be made available shortly.
