• April 2019
In this groundbreaking talk Dr Firmin, the founder of Contextual Safeguarding outlines three things.
One: how contexts beyond families are associated with abuse.
Two: how traditional child protection systems fail to engage with these contextual dynamics.
Three: the components of the Contextual Safeguarding system that would redefine what child protection means.
With special thanks to core the TEDxTottenham organising team, volunteers and cherished partners - without you this experience would not be possible. Our event history can be found at TEDxTottenham.com.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organised events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organised events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organised TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organised.
