- What is the ICC-T intervention?
The preventative intervention ICC was first developed with the aim of supporting teachers and caregivers at primary schools and orphanages in Southern Tanzania by providing guidance in nonviolent and supportive interactions with children. This workshop was developed within the framework of a project by vivo international which was funded by Misereor. After initial piloting efforts were successful, the training materials were further developed and revised by an international team of German, Tanzanian, and Ugandan psychologists and teachers.
- Who is the ICC-T designed for?
Two ICC versions for teachers were developed, one version for primary school teachers and a second version for secondary school teachers. Implementing and evaluating the effectiveness of ICC-T was made possible through stipends by the Catholic Exchange Service (KAAD) and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, as well as through funding and support from the University of Konstanz, Bielefeld University, the Dar es salaam University College of Education (DUCE), the Daimler and Benz Foundation, and vivo international.
