Commencing the training, Participants were taken through the SOS Incident Management Regulation, the roles of the IMT and investigators and the principles of a child-centred and survivor-centred approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trainees were also thought how to plan for an investigation, receive and assessing reports, defining scope, confidentiality and managing risk to children and staff, Interviewing skills, interviewing children, witnesses and subjects of concern, backed with practical role plays also formed part of the training exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants were also schooled on evidence and analysis, gathering, documenting and weighing evidence and keeping the investigations fair and impartial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The climax of the capacity building session exposed participants to report writing, case simulation, and a review of lessons learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training was conducted by an international Facilitator from Dakar, Senegal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to the capacity building training, SOS Children\u2019s Villages, Sierra Leone heavily relied on external investigators to investigate internal misconduct by local staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concluding the historic training, the National Director, Mr. Dionisio Periera thanked the facilitator, the participants for their commitment throughout the training period and to SOS Children\u2019s Villages International for a giant step taken to capacitate its local staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
