The Safeguarding Resource and Support Hub (RSH) is a new global programme that aims to support organisations in the aid sector to strengthen their safeguarding policy and practice against Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Sexual Harassment (SEAH). RSH has launched an Online Hub – https://safeguardingsupporthub.org/, offering relevant and accessible safeguarding materials and opportunities for meaningful engagement.

Whether they are under lockdown and out of school, in refugee camps or in crowded villages, detained, or living on the streets, institutionalized or on the move, children and young people have the right to be heard. But their views are hardly ever sought out by decision-makers and their ideas are rarely listened to. The #CovidUnder19 initiative aims to change that.

Terre des hommes (Tdh) conducted an assessment of the impact that COVID-19 pandemic had on families in need in Albania. 779 persons from 8 cities of Albania took part in the assessment. As a result of the findings, Tdh provides a list of recommended measure to support the recovery of vulnerable communities in Albania.

The project aims to support civic engagement initiatives of young people, to offer them more opportunities at the local level and, in the end, to establish a range of good practices that would allow sustainable collaboration among community actors, beyond the project framework.

Terre des hommes (Tdh) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) have joined efforts to develop a Europe-wide child safeguarding programme aimed at providing a safe and positive experience for all children and young people who play football. Today we are launching a digital platform, a toolkit and four online courses focusing on child safeguarding in football.

Terre des hommes Romania has developed, together with Arhipera Association, the "Guide for equipping schools in rural areas with interior sanitary facilities", a first tool of this kind to support entities that must offer proper sanitary conditions to children.

We, the undersigned organizations, jointly call on European governments to proceed immediately with the emergency relocation of unaccompanied children from the Reception and Identification Centres (RICs) on the Greek islands, with no discrimination, giving precedence to existing family links and the best interests of the child.

Children and youth in correctional facilities and detention centers in Romania have the right to a better future, but they risk being trapped in the system all their lives. At the beginning of 2020, Terre des hommes (Tdh) has started in Romania a project to help the rehabilitation of youth who are deprived of liberty.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Terre des hommes is calling on States to release all children from immigration detention and accelerate the release of children deprived of liberty in criminal justice or protection facilities. Urgent attention should be given to the implementation of non-custodial measures to ensure children's safe reintegration into families and communities. In rare cases where children cannot be released, States should implement measures to safeguard children’s health. ​ 

Recalling the letter issued on 6 March 2020, signed by more than 250 organizations throughout Europe, the undersigned organizations reiterate the dangers stemming from persisting in current arrangements on the management of the reception of asylum seekers and the respect for their right to seek asylum in Greece.
