POSITIVE DISCIPLINEResources for the promotion of positive disciplineThis section of the website lists a wide range of resources for the promotion of positive, non-violent discipline among parents, teachers, other adults who work with children and children and young people themselves. Law reform to prohibit all corporal punishment of children is a human rights imperative (see “Human rights and law”). Prohibition cannot wait for a transformation in traditional attitudes and practices but should be seen as the foundation for that transformation. The promotion of law reform, awareness raising about children’s right to protection and, where reform has been achieved, awareness raising about the law should go hand in hand with the promotion of positive, non-violent and respectful relationships with children in all settings of their lives. While civil society organisations can and do raise awareness about children’s right to protection and about positive discipline, ultimately, governments should take responsibility for this process, including through providing education and training for parents and professionals. For more information on promoting positive discipline in conjunction with promoting law reform, see the “Reform” section of this website and the Global Initiative’s Campaigns Manual (2010). How the resources are sorted Resources for parents will be useful for all those in a caregiving role, including for example extended family members and foster carers. The term “parents” is used for convenience. Similary, resources aimed at the home setting will also be useful in other settings where children live or are cared for. The majority of resources listed as being for teachers or aimed at school settings are primarily focussed on education settings, but some could also apply in other settings where children are cared for and be used by other professionals working directly with children. Resources for trainers are those which provide materials for the promotion of positive discipline to groups of parents, teachers, children or young people. The intended audience of the training is listed in the “About” section for each resource. It is not necessary to be an experienced trainer to use the resources for trainers many provide a complete guide to running training sessions. Resources for professionals are aimed primarily at those working at a policy level for children, for example policy-makers and advocates. Resources are listed here according to their primary audience(s) and setting(s) but may also be useful to others falling outside those categories. Resources for all audiences and settings may be useful for advocates of law reform to prohibit all corporal punishment for example, to address concerns about prohibition and as part of understanding what is needed for its implementation. All resources are freely available unless otherwise stated.
