Together with the University Hospital Heidelberg and the Childhood Foundation, we have developed a new concept for interrogation rooms and implemented it for the first time in the Childhood House Heidelberg.
The Topic
Criminal investigation and child protection are not always consistent. For this reason, underage victims of violence and abuse are often exposed to high psychological stress, e.g. during interviews, investigations or statements in court. Child protection has so far been a secondary issue in this sensitive area. The Childhood Haus project aims to change this.
The Concept
“The Childhood House takes up the idea of the Scandinavian “Barnahus” (literally: “children’s house”) and implements it modified in Germany. It is a child-friendly, interdisciplinary and inter-agency centre for children who have become victims and witnesses of violence. Here children can take part in explorative and forensic interviews, are medically and psychologically examined and receive all necessary therapeutic support from optimally trained specialist staff.
The main goal is to establish the Childhood House in Germany as a well-structured, coordinating central contact point that unites all necessary interdisciplinary professions under one roof in its cooperation in order to ensure the best possible care for children and adolescents with experiences of abuse.
The investigation procedure is therefore no longer solely about finding the truth, but also about the well-being of the child concerned”.
Our role
VTIS GmbH is the contact partner for the technical implementation of the Childhood House project. In addition to consulting and conception, our task was the professional implementation of all customer specifications, the installation and setup of the system, as well as data protection aspects.
