Descriptif

This course provides a thorough introduction to child protection systems in Europe and how international

humanitarian efforts address child welfare in developing regions, with a focus on West Africa. Divided into

two modules, the first examines the EU’s child protection priorities—such as digital safety, AI governance,

and deinstitutionalization—while the second focuses on the work of international organizations in tackling

issues like poverty, gender-based violence, and conflict. Students will engage with theoretical frameworks,

case studies, and expert guest lectures to develop critical thinking and practical skills grounded in real-world

policymaking and service delivery.
