➢ Executive Summary
UNICEF supported child protection project was implemented in nine districts of Eastern Regions’
four provinces from July 2018 until April 2019. There were 18901 children in 180 Child Friendly
Spaces (CFS) in two shifts who benefited from this project. The children and families involved
gained knowledge and support on issues related to psychosocial care, awareness on various topics
and polio vaccination.
Child protection constituted the core area of all interventions. It was effectively connected to areas
of health messaging, and a range of awareness raising activities. The child friendly spaces became a
favorite “go to place” for the children. Regular attendance of children was an indicator of the
effectiveness of the program. The psychosocial outreach brought parents into the ambit of child
protection. Trained volunteers reached out to parents to educate them on the impact of violence
on children. This was positively received and brought about a change in behavior.
As part of the integrated approach, parents and shora members benefited from the awareness on
land mines, child protection, psychosocial support and return issues.
➢ Introduction
Tabish began its activities in July 2018 with an aim to reach 18000 children in child projection
related activities. TABISH partnered with UNICEF in carrying out the integrated child protection
activities with a focus on child friendly spaces. The approach to this project was based on the
premise that no one activity in isolation will help support the child. Another idea was that the
community is best suited to support a child than any other external factors, thus based on this we
began our activities. Child friendly spaces was the center of our work, based on this we developed
other projects. This final report will give a description of all the activities that were conducted in the
last nine months and also some of the achievements, challenges, lessons learnt and
recommendations.

➢ Training and Orientation Session for Staff
TABISH after the selection of staff,
conducted five days of project
orientation and training on the
theme of child psychosocial
support and child protection, child
rights and CFS structure, during
this training the staff where told
about the project and were
explained the various activities.
Many of the staff had a good
knowledge of PSS work in CFS due to their prior engagement with Tabish. During the orientation, we had to
focus on the urgency of the project and the need to keep the time schedule. All newly recruited staff for
this project attended the sessions.
➢ Selection of the areas and coordination with the targeted
communities.
TABISH before signing the project contract, assessed several districts of the four provinces in
eastern region and identified and selected the following areas for activities in consultation with
UNICEF:

After the selection of the areas,
meetings were conducted with
the targeted communities in
nine targeted district before
the start of the project on how
to coordinate and access the
areas. There were meetings
with government related
departments and community
leaders were also met so that
they understand the work of
Tabish in the community.
➢ Identification and selection of volunteers according to criteria.
Since the project was a community based project, there was a need to recruit 180 CFS volunteers
from the community in nine districts, one volunteer for every CFS was selected. This was done in
discussion with the community leaders both men and women. Only those who were above 18 years
with some basic education, especially to read and write were chosen. Those with better people
skills were chosen over those who were not willing to engage with others.
➢ Training for 180 Volunteers.
Psychosocial Master Trainers and Counselor
provided three days theoretical and practical
training on Psycho social support, Child
Protection and structure of CFSs activities for
volunteers, during the training, stationary and
toys were distributed to them. They were
trained to work with the children when they
attended the CFS and to maintain records. The
Page 7
7
volunteers are the main persons of contact for the children and so they had to know how to deal
with children. A detailed plan on the activities to be conducted was also discussed and shared with
them.
➢ Child Friendly Spaces
TABISH after completing the volunteer's training, establish 180 CFSs separated for girls and boys
based in the communities. All CFSs spaces were provided by CFSs volunteers free of charge. In each
of these spaces there were two sessions held, one in the morning and one in the evening, this made
maximum utilization of the space that was available. There are 95 in Nangarhar, 25 in Laghman, 30
in Kunar and 30 in Nuristan. Two CFSs for children on the move in UNHCR Encashment Centers, and
two CFSs for children on the move in IOM Transit Center was also established.
CFS according to the child protection
minimum standards are spaces that
reach out to child protection and is the
entry point to mobilize the community.
Tabish has done well in bringing children
together and also mobilizing the
community. 180 CFSs were part of the
activity which was run in 180 spaces for
boys and girls separately. There were
children as young as three years and the
older ones were up to 17 years of age. In the last nine months, volunteers provided psychosocial
support through CFS to 18969 children. Games, drawing, reading and speaking to the group and
each other was all part of the CFS activities.
Tabish looks at working with children as an influence on the future generation of Afghanistan.
Improving relationships, playing ad working together is emphasized. Pent up negative energy is
released with the help of active energy burning games. Some extra work on education led to
knowing that several children were out of school. Another intervention was on polio, we realized
that CFS is a good place to promote polio vaccination and also encourage our children to bring their
siblings for the drops.

Thus an integrated approach was used to include all aspects of community engagement.
Community mobilization was yet another part of the CFS, which helped organize awareness
programs on PSS, CP, MRE and returnee issues for the communities.

➢ Case Management
Since one of the main objectives of this project was to provide psychosocial support to the children,
the project had eight counselors actively
engaged in the four provinces to work
with children who needed support. The
volunteers from the CFS, community
mobilizers, animators, communities and
youth council members were able to
identify the children that needed support
and referred them to the counselors.
Systematic case management was done
with the children. There were various cases that included child abuse which was mainly beating,
lack of access to education, health issues and children caught in family conflict. Unemployment
causes poverty and with growing economic problems there is no peace in the family. The problems
faced by children are described in a simplified table from the different provinces as identified by
our counselors.

For the above mentioned problems a total of 1065 children were counseled, this included 534 boys
and 531 girls. There were individual and group sessions conducted for the children.
For case management to be complete, in some cases there was a need to meet with the families of
the children. Either of the parents were met or sometimes both were met by the counselors. There
was also group discussion with the parents ranged from helping them to find ways to put their child
back in school or sometimes talking to them about the ill effects of child abuse and sometimes even
the importance of hygiene. The broader purpose of the meetings was to make parents aware of
their role and responsibilities and to improve the psycho-social well-being of their children.
➢ Awareness on Polio vaccination and Hygiene
Page 12
12
Given the integrated approach to CFS, awareness on polio vaccination and hygiene was an
important activity. All parents went through a
polio vaccination awareness session.
Topics such as information about polio, impact
of polio on children, consequence of polio and
importance of polio and other vaccination for
children, also we had topics on cleaning,
grooming and caring for the child’s body at the
most basic level were taught. The need for
personal hygiene of child in order to protect
oneself and others from illnesses and diseases
was also discussed. The importance of hand
wash as related to illness such as cold and flu
which spread from hand to mouth when they
are not washed properly was taught to children. Washing hands and wrists before making or eating
food, after using the toilet was emphasized, oral hygiene was yet another topic that was dealt with.
These programs were highly beneficial to the children and parents. IEC material was also made
available and was posted. The parents are able to take the learning to their families and share what
they learnt with them. This helps the entire community take a step towards hygienic living and
environmental protection.

16139 (6486 men, 9653 women) participants were part of the awareness sessions conducted by
health educators and Animators in all areas of our work. This was done in 580 sessions, 282 for men
and 298 sessions for women.
➢ Awareness program on CP, PSS, MRE and return issues
The idea behind conducting awareness programs was a follow up to the previous UNICEF supported
project for the new IDPs and returnees in
Behsood and Sorkhrod districts. In the new
areas, it was to ensure that the people had
some basic knowledge about various topics
such as PSS, CP, MRE and return issues.
Awareness about PSS helped many people to
realize that some of the problems they were
facing was not because of fate or curse and
that they can do something about it. They
understood the social dynamics which was
related to the psychological and emotional
part.
During the reporting period, Tabish conducted 488 awareness sessions on PSS, Child Protection, for
15258 community members (8822 men, 6436 women) and 486 awareness sessions on MRE and
Returnees issues for 15142 community members (8849 men, 6293 women) in the nine targeted
districts of four provinces, The PSS session gave awareness on need for psychosocial support within
the community. It helps the community to identify the psycho-social needs within the community.
Child Protection gives information on the basic needs of protection for the children. Similarly, land
mines awareness explains the various land mines and how people can take care of themselves
against it. Return issues focuses on why people return and push and pull factors that are involved.
We also spoke about gender and urbanization. We highlighted the problems after return especially
if it is not properly documented. Awareness was conducted for the men and women separately.

Behsood and Sorkhrod districts in Nangarhar province, were covered under awareness program on
PSS, CP, MRE and Returnees Issues in the previous project and so in this project, instead of
awareness, we conducted ToT. This session is for those who have already been trained in CP, PSS,
MRE and Return issues, under this program we conducted 151 (76 men, 75 women) sessions for
655 (382 men, 273 women) individuals, the ToT is to teach them to be able to conduct awareness
sessions in their community.

Tabish established 18 community elders
shoras with 362 (194 men,168 women)
members and 18 youth councils with 311
(166 young boys, 145 young girls) in nine
targeted district. At the beginning of the
project, for each elders Shora and youth
council we conducted a two days training on
child protection minimum standards and
child rights. The trainings enhanced the
knowledge of Shora members and youth
council about child protection through CFSs. The community Shora and youth council members
gave full attention to the program to know about child rights so as to ensure child protection policy
in the community and they appreciated the goal of the project. They learnt about child protection
and child rights and they will have monthly discussion meeting with Tabish animators to discuss
child protection risk in their area and to find a solution to the problems. After the training Tabish
animator conducted regular monthly meeting with the members of both Elder shora and youth
council, we discussed the risks of child protection, the main issues which we had discussion were
family violence, child labor, violence against children, discrimination between boys and girl, child
marriage, child trafficking, education of children, health of children, vaccination of children and
rrecruitment of children in ALP.As a result,
one 17 year old boy who was dismissed
from the Afghan Local Police in Alishang
District was reinducted, 14 children in
Nuristan and 2 children in Chaparhar were
separated from the armed groups and 43
children received national ID for school
registration and will to go to school in the
beginning of the school year. In general,
the status of children has improved, and
violence against children has reduced.

➢ Other Activities
1. Capacity Building for Staff:
Based on project agreement for capacity building of staff, during the project, Tabish main
office organized three days training on case management and CFS for CPER project staff in
Kabul province, the program was held in Kabul, all CPER project staff participated in the
training, the topics discussed in this program were two days’ case management and one-day
child friendly Space, during the training Tabish national trainer explained the definition,
principles and steps of case management, he also explained the child friendly space, aims,
principles structure of a standard CFS, when, where, how can we establish the CFS and
importance of games during the CFS activities.
2. Referral services
A total of 158 (73 boys, 85 girls) children were referred to other services for more follow up
such as hospital, vaccination and counseling.
3. Psychosocial services for New IDPs from Chapadara/ Kunar Province:
Due to armed clashes between the Taliban and the ISIS in Chapadara district, more than 2000 families
were displaced, they took refuge in different parts of Kunar and Nangarhar provinces, Tabish took up an
emergency response to their situation and carried out the following activities:
Pichdara Kunar:
Tabish with the support of UNICEF already had 20 CFSs in this district, we then conducted the following
activities for new IDPs:
✓ Covered around 375 new IDPs children (180 girls, 195 boys) from Chapadara district, under the
CFSs in Shahilam, Nangelam Ghondi, Nangilam Bazar,Wotangi, Shaloti, Manogi, and Nangelam
tangi villages.
✓ Psychosocial counselor Identified 13 children (8 boys,5 girls) for psychological intervention
among the new IDPs, and conducted group counseling sessions with them, the symptoms seen
among these children are fear, sleep disorders
and anxiety.
Woch Tangi / Behsood district Nangarhar:
✓ Psychosocial counselor identified two children The boy was injured in armed conflict - Counseling
Page 18
18
for psychological intervention among new IDPs, and conduct individual counseling session with
them, one boy was injured during the armed conflict, his physical condition was good, the
wound is not deep, but his mental situation was not good, he was under stress and had sleep
disorder, fear, flash memories of the conflict, the other one also had sleep disorder, fear and
negative thinking. Both of them were under psychological stress and the counselor did a
thorough follow up and they are fine now.
✓ Tabish covered around 200 new IDPs children (92 girls, 108 boys), under the CFSs in three parts
of Woch Tangi.
✓ Group counseling with 19 new IDP children (7 girls, 12 boys), the main symptoms were fear,
negative think, hopeless, sleep disorder and anxiety.
✓ Tabish conducted family support group with ten
new IDPs from Chapadara. Our counselors tried
to reach out to all IDPs who suffered from
psychosocial problems in this area.
✓ Tabish conducted awareness on Polio
vaccination for the new IDPs from Chapadara.
✓ Tabish conducted awareness on PSS, CP for 31
(14 men, 17 Women) new IDP from Chapadara
district.
➢ Achievement
All IDPs and returnees from our targeted areas have a good knowledge on CP, PSS, MRE and return issues.
They would have been in the dark if not for our intervention. This by itself is an achievement because now
they can protect themselves and their children. Convincing children to get back to school was yet another
achievement of our work.
Training on CP and child right for Shora members and youth council was very useful, the members
were very happy, they have committed to work with their communities to identify the affected
children and work to reduce child protection issues. When we explained the impact of Child
protection and child right on the social environment and on their mental health, they were able to
understand and that’s when they realized that they need to change the external factors as well.
PSS trainings helped a lot since people’s view of mental health changed, they were able to see
people as mentally ill and not mad or crazy. This made a big difference in the community. PSS is still

not popular in the villages. People want medicines all the time. When we began our work and gave
them information about counselling, the people understood and the results was good.
When family faces economic problem they are depressed and immediately people think that they
have the jinn and take them to the mullah. But now they are able to understand that people are
traumatized and stressed. People have also learnt that mental status may also affect the body, with
this understanding they know the reason for their head ache. They are able to connect the physical
problems to mental problems and that to social issues. They began to understand the nexus
between mental, physical and social problems.
➢ Challenges
• Security was a major concern, especially in Chaparhar and Alishang district, the community
mobilizers were not able to move freely in the villages.
• Negative competition within the community. Community leaders recommended their family
members to be chosen as volunteers. Community leaders fought over this. We had to
discuss it in depth with them and take it forward amicably. We asked them to choose one
leader to represent themselves so that we can communicate with them.
• Remoteness of some areas such as Nuristan, existence of security threats on the way and
High snow .
➢ Lessons Learnt
• There is need to distribute recreational items and hygiene goods in two or three rounds.
• In each community , there is need to have one or two volunteer leaders among the CFS
volunteers so that we can communicate with them and they can support each other
• We should strength the communication and support between CFs volunteers.
• Child to child support should be promoted, this would be like peer counselling but just that
there will not be a counselling component but they will support each other.
• PSS is very important for Afghanistan, especially for the women it is much needed. It will be
useful to follow up on this project and continue it for at least three years so that a tangible
change is made in the community.
Page 20
20
• There is need for joint monitoring with UNICEF, especially during the distribution of salary,
recreational items and hygiene goods.
➢ Recommendation
• The project needs to be continued for better results. The children enjoyed coming to the
CFS and it will be helpful if it is continued for some more time.
• There is a need to extend the awareness activities to other areas, there is not much
knowledge about CP, PSS, land mine and return issues in the villages.
• There is need for more trained community volunteers so that the capacity of the community
is built.
• Community based schools should be opened in areas where children do not have access to
regular schools specially in Ettifaq and Khairokhel.
➢ Conclusion
The project was a major success for several reasons. We were able to reach more people than we
planned and were also able to make a difference in the lives of many people. Apart from what we
set out to do, we were able to cover more ground with other work such as new IDPs in Assadabad.
We were able to make good contact with the government sector which helped in advocacy. All staff
did a great job in maintaining good relationship with the community leaders. To us in Tabish it is
not just another project but one that changed the lives of people.
