This activity pack
has been designed to introduce children and facilitators to
Protective Behaviours, as a strategy for the prevention of
abuse of children. It emphasises the rights children have in
relation to safety and support. The need to raise children ’s
awareness of their rights and promote these rights is
recognised in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
The activities
have been designed for use with children in schools and
community centres. It is important to note that Protective
Behaviours Programmes are suitable for all groups of people.
It is about safety, empowerment, self-esteem, assertiveness
and valuing yourself.
The pack was launched on the 30th May 2002.
