The Protection and Social Rehabilitation Center "Aman", one of the centers of the Qatar Foundation for Social Work, participated in the work of the 33rd virtual conference of the International Organization for Empowerment of Women and Capacity Building in the State of Kuwait under the title "The reality of the Arab child between peace and conflict". Acting Director of the Rehabilitation Department at Aman Center, Ms. Sabeeka Al-Nasr, participated in presenting a working paper on ways to protect and rehabilitate children from violence, and the nature of the programs that are being developed to deal with children exposed to violence, by shedding light on the concept of violence and its types, methods of prevention, and adopting mechanisms and special programs at Aman Center to stop violence and how to deal with children exposed to violence, in addition to clarifying the role and work of Aman Center in protecting and rehabilitating the targeted groups of victims of violence from women and children, and victims of family breakdown.

In this context, Mrs. Sabeeka Al-Nasr expressed the keenness of Aman Center to participate in such conferences through which experiences and information are exchanged, by presenting the experiences of more than one country on the issue of social protection. Through this platform, emphasis was placed on clarifying the role of Aman Center in providing Services for the target groups from the very beginning of receiving the case until reaching the integration service, the aftercare, and the continuous care. She also stressed the need to take into account the feelings of children and not abusing them, as they are tomorrow's future. She clarified the side effects and the seriousness of its repercussions on societal security. Among the recommendations emphasized by Mrs. Sabeeka, everyone should work together to stop any violence or abuse of children, by highlighting the role of the authorities in establishing more civil society institutions concerned with the protection of children, establishing shelters for children at risk of serious injuries, and the inclusion of programs for educating the families and making them aware of using modern methods of education, in addition to the need to follow up on the targeted families periodically (reaching out to the houses), and enabling children to follow up with psychologists to overcome the negative psychological effects resulting from violence, and binding the abuser to receive psychological treatment, as well as allocating programs to educate children on how to protect themselves from violence.

This participation comes within the framework of the plans and programs of the Aman Center, and the Center's keenness to activate the community, regional and international partnership between it and government agencies, civil society institutions, and the public and private sectors.
