Today, we successfully concluded a series of training sessions aimed at strengthening the knowledke and skills of legal professionals and other experts for effective representation and work with children who are victims of criminal offences. The trainings, which took place in December and January as part of the FOSTER project, were designed to deepen participants’ knowledge for the professional handling of children in judicial proceedings.
The training programme combined theoretical foundations with practical work. Through a series of lectures, participants gained insight into key aspects of child psychology and the legal framework for the protection of children’s rights. The practical component was delivered in the form of workshops, during which participants developed concrete skills for working with child victims of criminal offences, conducting interviews with children, and applying principles of child-friendly communication.
Within the project, we trained more than 50 legal and other professionals who, in their daily work, regularly come into contact with children who are victims of criminal offences. We would like to sincerely thank all lecturers for sharing their knowledge and experience, as well as all participants for their active engagement and valuable contributions.
