Helping Healing: Modules for Caregivers on Basic Biopsychosocial Help for Children in Need of Special Protection is a product of UNICEF’s nationwide program on upgrading the capacities of caregivers in providing biopsychosocial services for children in need of special protection (CNSP). This was made possible through the coordinated efforts of UNICEF, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the Psychosocial Trauma and Human Rights Program of the Center for Integrative and Development Studies, University of the Philippines (UP CIDS PST).

This manual addresses the need to train social workers and other child caregivers in using holistic, child oriented, and culturally appropriate approaches in helping CNSP.

Some useful guides and resources rooted on a rights-based approach are provided. The manual also takes into account the cultural context of Filipino children and the caregivers by incorporating discussions on Sikolohiyang Pilipino. Creative techniques which can be used by social workers in conducting training courses for child caregivers are also included in this manual.

Humanitarian Practice Network, 2003

This paper argues for a reappraisal of the position of education in emergency programming. It explores the links between education and the wider protection needs of the children it assists. It suggests that, as protection in conflict emerges more clearly as a legitimate humanitarian concern, so the role of education as a tool of protection must be more clearly understood.

Children, as do adults, experience the tsunami and its impact in different ways. Each child will respond differently and have varying needs. This document outlines in broad terms the approaches that could be used to support children of different age groups in welfare centres, in the community or wherever group activities can be facilitated.

In 2003, a consortium of international non-governmental organisation (NGOs) in partnership with the NSPCC (National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children) launched Setting the Standard – a common approach to child protection. This document gave for the first time, details of the basic standards that international or development organisations working with children must meet, to keep them safe from abuse. Widely circulated, it aimed to encourage a more strategic approach to child protection so that all NGOs in all countries were working to the same standards. This document has now been revised and renamed as Keeping Children Safe: Standards for Child Protection and it forms one part of Keeping Children Safe: A Toolkit for Child Protection.
