In cooperation with
Growing awareness world-wide of a large number of children affected
by poverty, abuse, exploitation, inadequate health care and education
has led to increased concern at international and national levels
for the protection of children, the promotion of their rights
and welfare and their capacity to play an active role in their
own and their society's development.
The ISPI's School is launching the Advanced Diploma in Children
and Development to help answer the growing need in international
and national agencies and NGOs for trained professionals with
specialised skills in dealing with childhood.
The programme of the Advanced Diploma in Children and Development,
finalised with a collaboration of the Italian National Committee
for UNICEF, provides participants an in-dept review and analysis
of key issues and concepts in the field of child studies in a
development context. It explores also how children are involved
in processes of development and how respond to children's needs
in a globalised world.
Through simulations, workshops, case studies and work group, the
participants' skills in rights-based approaches will be enhanced.
The training programme consists of five courses: two available
through Distance Learning and three to be held in Milan during
May - June 2008. All classes will be held in English.
The Advanced Diploma is addressed for anyone interested in developing
a professional career with the United Nations, International and
National NGOs, Research and academic Institutions, Political and
Lobby Counsultancies, both at headquarters and field level.
Prerequisites: significant academic (ISPI's Diploma and Courses
in International Development and Cooperation or similar courses)
or field experience.
Cost of the Advanced Diploma, including educational materials,
is 800 euro.
