UEFA CHILD SAFEGUARDING TOOLKIT AND ONLINE COURSES

UEFA launched a child safeguarding in football project in partnership with Terre des hommes to help UEFA’s member associations and other football stakeholders to reinforce their child safeguarding knowledge and skills.

The project comprises a child safeguarding toolkit and four accompanying online courses. Below you will find the English version of these resources. They are also available in French, German, and Russian.
