PROMISE Barnahus greater network

The founders of the PROMISE Barnahus Network, representing 13 countries, signed the statutes formalising the network in November 2019 in Helsinki. Since then, the network has grown to represent 36 organisations and individuals in 22 countries. Many additional countries have expressed great interest to join.

Since launching our work in 2015, PROMISE has been the hub for international exchange and cooperation promoting the Barnahus model as a standard practice in Europe for providing child victims and witnesses of violence with rapid access to justice in care. In our exchanges with professionals from around Europe and beyond, we are aware that professionals in the countries highlighted on the map below have been involved in developing and/or are working to implement the Barnahus Quality Standards in their national settings.

Membership in the Network is not an endorsement of any one service or approach as meeting the PROMISE Barnahus Quality Standards. Rather, membership is a commitment to work to progressively meet the Standards with support from the European network.
