Innovative Training for Child Protection in Mogadishu

In a dedicated effort to fortify the shield of protection around the children of Mogadishu, ANPPCAN-SOM took a significant stride by organizing an impactful training session for child protection partners. Held from November 7th to 9th, 2023, this intensive training was a beacon of hope, arming professionals with the invaluable tools of psychosocial support.

As we delved into the core of child protection, our mission extended beyond conventional approaches. ANPPCAN-SOM believes that the holistic well-being of children encompasses not just physical safety but also their emotional and psychological health. Hence, the focus of our training was on psychosocial support – a crucial element in nurturing resilience and healing for children who have faced adversity.

The training sessions were a rich tapestry of insights, strategies, and shared experiences, creating a collaborative space where child protection partners could enhance their skills and deepen their understanding. Facilitators, well-versed in the nuances of psychosocial support, guided participants through the intricacies of fostering emotional well-being in children affected by various challenges.

What sets this training apart is its commitment to practical application. ANPPCAN-SOM recognizes that the impact of child protection efforts is measured not just in theory but in the tangible difference made in the lives of children. As such, participants engaged in hands-on exercises, case studies, and interactive discussions, equipping them with the expertise needed to provide effective psychosocial support in real-world scenarios.

We extend our gratitude to the dedicated child protection partners who attended this training, bringing their passion and commitment to the forefront. Together, we are not just training professionals; we are building a network of compassionate advocates for the well-being of the youngest members of our community.

As the echoes of this transformative training linger in the air, ANPPCAN-SOM stands resolute in our mission to create a safer, more nurturing environment for every child in Mogadishu. Through the power of education, empathy, and collaboration, we are sowing seeds of resilience that will undoubtedly blossom into a future where every child can thrive. Stay tuned as we continue this journey of empowerment, making a lasting impact one training session at a time.
