Our model

With these core approaches, CWBSA aims to reduce the risk of violence against children and adolescents within the home, develop healthy family relationships and support childhood development through play:

Capacity Building

CWBSA capacity builds partners from the private, public, and non-governmental sectors in the scale up of the evidence informed Parenting for Lifelong Health and other psycho-social programmes. We manage a capacity building process up to facilitator, coach, and trainer levels. CWBSA supports capacity development of artists, facilitators, trainers, front-line workers, social workers, and other professionals.

Content Development and Research

CWBSA works towards supporting the development, adaptation, dissemination, and scale up of the Parenting for Lifelong Health Programme and other programmes through content development and research implementation.

Quality Assurance

CWBSA develops and reviews qualitative, efficient, and user-friendly systems and processes for management of potential scale up of parenting and other programmes.

Artistic

CWBSA collaborates with humanitarian partners through strengthened positioning and awareness around the use of play and arts to relieve suffering and trauma as well as providing creative tools for professionals, caregivers and children.

This map gives an overview of the countries in which CWBSA and the wider PLH/GPI networks have supported the development, testing and scale-up of PLH-related interventions.

“I learned that there is a huge difference between a facilitator, a coach, and a trainer. Every time we did activities, they were connected to the previous knowledge and experiences. I liked the activity where we looked at the overall programme; it gave me a better understanding of the KAP programme. I also understand that I need to demonstrate capacity in terms of principles in order to be an effective trainer in the field.”
