Child Welfare

Child Welfare refers to a system of practices, policies, and services designed to protect and promote the well-being of children, primarily through actions aiming at ensuring children's safety and promoting their development in a healthy environment. Coursera's Child Welfare catalogue teaches you the intricacies of this crucial responsibility. You'll learn about the ethical, legal, and societal aspects of child protection. The catalogue also delves into the role of social, educational, and health institutions in promoting child welfare, the importance of community partnerships, and strategies for intervention and prevention of child maltreatment. By the end of your study, you'll be equipped with an understanding of childcare policies, how to effectively communicate with children, and techniques for advocating for children's rights and welfare in various contexts.
