Evidence suggests that developing specific core capacities from childhood can support performance in school, work, and life.
These nine “core capacities” are cornerstones of life skills. We often overlook these capacities as innate basic skills, so they are underutilized in efforts to promote child well-being and development.
But by nurturing, expanding, and modelling these capacities, children can better understand and interact with the world around them, and realise their unique potential.

Unicef now playing a vital role in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a densely populated country where more than 50% people are poor and illiterate. Life is very difficult here in Bangladesh. As a result most of the children of Bangladesh do not get proper care by their parents or by the government . Unicef is now working with these deprived children for decades. By the help of Unicef, now Bangladesh has overcome some major problem which are found among the children of Bangladesh like diseases, education, proper hygiene, health care etc.

A1 Youngsters victimization prevention: how to prevent online grooming and un...VSE 2016
(Elise Corbari, LIBRA)
Youngsters are always “online”, how they use technology to improve their sexual knowledge? What is the meaning of online relations for adolescents? How can a victim support service prevent unsafe behaviours in order to make adolescents aware about potentialities and risks of the online behaviours?
Ruth Hammond - Saftguarding Children in a Digital WorldNaace Naace
ICT has opened up a world of opportunity; however we must all ensure that whilst the children and young people in our care enjoy the benefits they are also prepared for the risks. This session will aim to highlight the key policy messages and resources which are available to help safeguard our digital natives!
The Overall Goal of Safe Social Media is:
Reduce exposure to violence for children and adolescents through Social Media.
In order to solve some of these problems we have created Safe Social Media an educational project “to navigate without drowning”.
Our efforts will be oriented to create an online network of youth organizations, educational institutions, parents associations, media companies and other stakeholders, in order to establish a multidirectional and intergenerational dialogue on these issues.
The goal of this presentation is to increase your knowledge about social media and create a sense of awareness about social networking trends including cyber-dangers: sexting, bullying, stalking. Share social networking and media best practices and ultimately, start a conversation about a values-based approach to social networking.

The aim of this first session was to identify the diversity of problems around the world and the research challenges that result. In particular, contributors discussed the particular barriers to, and opportunities faced by, children in engaging with digital technologies in their country or region, also identifying areas where more research is needed.

The 2014 Serbia Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) and 2014 Serbia Roma Settlements Multiple Indicator Cluster
Survey were carried out in 2014 by the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia as part of the global MICS programme.
Technical and financial support was provided by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
The global MICS programme was developed by UNICEF in the 1990s as an international household survey programme
to support countries in the collection of internationally comparable data on a wide range of indicators on the situation of children and women. MICS surveys measure key indicators that allow countries to generate data for use in policies and programmes, and to monitor progress towards the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and other internationally agreed upon commitments.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

and who are perpetrators)
•ICT usage by children, their behaviour, risk factors,
vulnerability and harm
•Sources of protection
•Child protection, law enforcement response and private
sector response.
•Potential strategies.

4. Children’s usage
•Children use internet in similar ways (learning,
communication, social networking, gaming) – basic social
medium where online and offline come together
•Few differences between boys and girls
•Parents in industrialized countries catching up
•Move from fixed to mobile communication
•Popular fear that the Internet endangers all children not
supported by the evidence so far.
•The more children use internet the more risks they
encounter (the key is to ensure that children know how to
navigate these risks and that they are not harmed)

7. Challenges for effective child protection strategies
• Few countries have adequate legislation to address child abuse

• Determining when a crime has been committed
• Barriers to effective reporting
• Borderless crime
• Perceived anonymity of Internet
• Multiagency collaboration
• Police and welfare professional capabilities
• Lack of appropriate recovery services
• Lack of public consultation with children, families, teachers – link to
policymakers.
• Unclear role of industry players

9. Strategic UNICEF response
• Focusing on benefits and positive outcomes,
access that promotes inclusion and equity but a
the same time promoting safe access and digital
citizenship through empowerment
• Integrate ICT work into broader strategies e.g.
prevention and protection from abuse
• Intersectoral collaboration (education, protection,
law enforcement, private sector), consensus
building
