Protective Behaviours is a strengths-based life skill which encourages personal safety, self-empowerment, empathy, connection and responsibility to the rights of others, and responsibility for an individual’s own right to feel safe all the time, giving the confidence and strategies to live safe adventurous lives.
Protective Behaviours develops awareness and connection to others, teaches skills and strategies to avoid victimisation, and promotes healthy relationships that do not victimise.
Protective Behaviours is grounded in upholding, respecting, advocating and role-modelling our responsibility to, and responsibility for human rights, particularly the Rights of the Child.
