Preventing violence against children: INSPIRE webinar series - Safe environments

19 February 2021

Webinar #4

Safe environments

To assist governments, practitioners and implementers, civil society and faith-based organizations in their efforts to reduce violence against children, the INSPIRE core agencies and INSPIRE Working Group initiated a series of eight training webinars (December 2020 - April 2021). The aims are to:

  • Introduce INSPIRE to those who need to know and act on it,
  • Remind those who already work with INSPIRE about the need to scale it up, and
  • Give all INSPIRE stakeholders an opportunity to get detailed insights into each of the seven strategies and the cross-cutting elements.

This fourth webinar in the series presents the third INSPIRE strategy “safe environments” in more depth. Two interventions aimed at creating and sustaining safe streets and other environments where children and youth gather and spend time are presented and discussed; (1) the Cardiff model as an example of addressing “hotspots”, and (2) Cure Violence as an example of interrupting the spread of violence.
