CLOSED-DOOR STRATEGIC BRIEFING SESSION
Critical Developments in Family Strengthening, Child Safeguarding & Protection: What Every School Leader Must Know — And How to Respond Proactively

In today’s rapidly changing educational landscape, school leaders face one of the greatest responsibilities of our time: safeguarding children while sustaining schools as safe, credible, and resilient institutions. The role of a school is no longer confined to academics alone.
Yet, new realities are emerging which are already influencing school operations across Africa and beyond. The question is not if they will affect your school; it is how prepared you are as a leader to respond.
A Closed-Door Strategic Briefing for School Leaders
On Saturday, August 30, 2025, an exclusive Closed-Door Strategic Briefing Session will convene online, bringing together forward-thinking school leaders to examine these critical developments. The session, facilitated by Mr. Taiwo Akinlami, Africa’s foremost voice on family strengthening and child safeguarding, will unpack the five key shifts every school must understand and address immediately.
It is a high-level strategy conversation designed solely for:
- School Proprietors and Directors
- Heads of School and Senior Administrators
- Board Members and Compliance Officers
- Key Stakeholders with the School System
For a participation fee of $150, leaders will gain access to insights and strategies that could save their schools from regulatory sanctions, reputational risks, and costly lawsuits.
This briefing will help school leaders:
- Anticipate risks before they become headlines.
- Navigate compliance in line with statutory and global safeguarding standards.
- Strengthen internal systems that protect both children and the institution.
- Position their schools as trusted, future-ready institutions.
The session will be facilitated by Mr. Taiwo Akinlami, widely recognized as Africa’s leading authority on child protection and family strengthening. With over two decades of frontline work, Mr. Akinlami has advised governments, global organizations such as UNICEF, USAID, the British Council, and SOS Villages, as well as leading schools across Africa.
