The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has launched a training module for Child Welfare Committees (CWCs) to enhance the knowledge and skills improvement of its members to deliver effective and timely service for the protection and rehabilitation of children, an official statement said on Sunday, November 20, 2022.
Further, NCPCR has launched the ‘GHAR – GO Home and Re-Unite’ (Portal for Restoration and Repatriation of Child) which addresses the amended roles of CWCs and District Child Protection Officers (CPOs) for children in need of care and protection.
The module is a 15-day program for training CWCs. It is divided into 63 sessions over a 72-hour duration. The participants would be required to spend an average of four hours and 50 minutes in the training per day, it stated.
According to the statement, the module was launched at an event during which a video message from Women and Child Development minister Smriti Irani was played. Irani appealed to all CWCs and District Child Protection Officers (DCPOs) to implement the amendment of the JJ Act and Rules, 2021 and 2022, it added.
