These training modules aim at introducing child protection concepts and providing child protection mission-specific tactical situations to military and police contingent leaders and staff. The materials intend to promote a better understanding of the missions’ child protection mandate, actors in the mission and outside of the mission who contribute to the protection of children, and actors integral to the coordination of child protection.
