The Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action (CPMS) Working Group of the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action is launching a new webinar series to introduce the new standards in the 2019 edition of the CPMS.

This course is designed for people who wish to deepen their knowledge on trauma-informed practices and intervention for children in care who suffered traumatic events.

This webinar focuses on strengthening family and caregiving environments, a standard that was added to reflect the new focus on the socio-ecological model.

This virtual event will take place in lieu of the parallel event planned for the 64th Commission on the Status of Women “Bringing the Voices of Women and Girls with Disabilities to CSW64” and will be accompanied by a dedicated communications strategy.
