description Violence, abuse and neglect constitute major threats to children’s health and wellbeing globally. However, until recently, relatively little systematic attention has been paid to the role of faith communities in shaping the protective environment for children. This paper describes the development of a measure to capture child-protective disposition amongst faith communities through field studies with faith leaders and their spouses in Senegal, Uganda and Guatemala. Identifying common factors related to child care and protection practices, orientation to child rights and approaches to discipline, the measure potentially serves to both inform and evaluate interventions seeking to engage with the beliefs and behaviours of faith communities to support children’s health and wellbeing. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10943-022-01660-z.
