AFRUCA in Europe
AFRUCA UK is an NGO in Special Consultative status with UN ECOSOC (UN Economic and Social Council).
AFRUCA works in partnership with different agencies across europe and is a member of the international society for protection against child abuse and neglect (ispcan) and a member of the african-europe diaspora development platform (ADEPT)
Our work in Europe is three fold:
Work with statutory agencies in different countries to help enhance the skills and capacity of their staff to intervene in African families, address key issues and provide appropriate support.
Partnership work with NGOs to address key issues affecting children, young people and families through joint programme and training delivery on Child Trafficking, FGM and Children in the Child Protection System and other issues
Transfer of knowledge approach to share learning from AFRUCA’s successful long term work with African communities in the UK with other NGOs across Europe
In the coming years, work across Europe will be a core element of AFRUCA’s work and activities.
