"Doing child protection work is not easy, in fact it is challenging and often not well paid! The Child Hub cannot make child protection work easy (or well paid!) but it can provide resources that will be useful to professionals involved in this demanding work. It is also be a 'place' where professionals can meet others involved in the same work - from their own and neighbouring countries - and share experiences, ideas and aspirations."

"The Child Protection Hub is an open space for everyone working towards the full realization of children's rights. It is a smart combination of virtual and real life learning and exchange. Here, Child Protection professionals can interact among themselves and with international experts, access various practical and theoretical materials. The contribution of every professional is important for the development of our hub. "

It's clear that great effort and care has been put into ensuring the Child Hub interface is attractive, colorful, and inviting. Anyone using the site feels encouraged to reach out to others as communication is simple and straightforward. Perhaps most importantly, Child Hub connects people from many different countries and offers something for everyone. It is constantly being updated and improved, and feedback is welcomed and easy to give. 

Child Hub is a place where child protection experts and the general public can gather to discuss the central issues in child protection. I like it that it not only provides a friendly and accessible learning platform, but also allows professionals to share experiences and resources. A strong background in child protection paves the way towards efficient actions and positive changes for the future.

I found the Child Protection Hub to be a necessary and important tool for professionals and for the general public in receiving and sharing information on child protection. As an interactive mobile site, the Hub enables us access to abundant and up-to-date information in multiple formats (such as textual and audio-visual), and the site also provides a space for the exchange of expertise between members of the community.

Often, professionals who provide direct services to children, see a gap between theory and practice: ‘How can we apply the attachment theory to the particular case of a 12-year-old boy with challenging behaviour?’ Without having the ambition to redesign university programmes, childhub.org connects theory, research and practice by offering self-study materials in plain language. The broad scope of resources which vary in length, format and topic cover psychological, social, legal and medical issues related to child protection services.
