In line with the child safeguarding and protection policy, WezaCare once again conducted an important session on the Puppet Interview Programme (PIP). This innovative methodology equips practitioners with essential skills to support vulnerable children and their families. Here’s what you need to know:
Expertise Upgrade: PIP empowers practitioners to enhance their counseling abilities, specifically addressing the psycho-social needs of children and families.
Gatekeeping Mechanism: By preventing children from dropping out of school, PIP acts as a crucial gatekeeper, ensuring that education remains accessible to all.
Curative Measures: PIP reintegrates children into their communities—whether it’s their home, school, or village—promoting holistic healing and inclusion.
Comprehensive Assessment: Practitioners use PIP to assess situations comprehensively. It provides evidence about circumstances, challenges, resources, and the child’s wishes, placing them at the center of decision-making.
Tailor-Made Solutions: Armed with gathered information, practitioners create personalized case management plans. PIP’s solution-focused approach guides recommendations for further counseling and care.
