United Edge

It's time to reframe the current #safeguarding narrative away from compliance and colonial #power dynamics and towards #contextualized approaches for genuine prevention, protection, compassion, agency, and #justice. This #subsidized #training focuses on creating a #cultureshift within teams and #NGOs working with those #MostAffected by today's injustices. Join us this #September for an interactive curriculum presented through a lens of #SocialJustice that includes theory, practice, case studies, tools, and discussions with participants, guest speakers, and facilitators from around the world. We're excited to present an updated Transformative Safeguarding #Toolkit to better design, implement, evaluate, and audit safeguarding policies and practices. Over 200 participants from 60+ countries joined us last time and said: 💥 "This is one of the best online courses ever! Highly recommended. Very professional. Active and open-minded team. Very fruitful course." (UNICEF | Palestine) 💥 "It is a way of challenging your thinking about safeguarding, gaining the courage to hold yourself and others accountable for the decisions made about the most vulnerable groups in society." (Oxfam | United Kingdom) 💥 "This is a great introductory course to explore safeguarding as a concept, beyond compliance, and look towards effective broader thinking about systems implemented and how to influence them."
