The Child-Safe Organisations training programme and toolkit provides a framework for the development and practical application of child protection policies within local organisations that work with and for children.

The specific aim of the training is to encourage organisations to look within their own organisations and to assess for themselves what they can do to ensure their organisations uphold best practice in child protection.

The purpose of this self-study guide, which accompanies the training toolkit, is to enable individuals to work independently, at their own pace, to check or develop their awareness of issues raised throughout the training.
