Se fortalecerán las capacidades de la niñez en definir rutinas exitosas de vida y de convivencia, en fortalecer el centro de control interno (locus interno) de algunos procesos como el de aprender a aprender, sin perder la capacidad de escuchar y ser orientado por otros, además de fomentar oportunidades para que los niños y niñas participen de las decisiones y actividades familiares y en otras instancias como las escuelas, la iglesia y espacios recreativos, ambientes esenciales para el fortalecimiento de su resiliencia humana.
IMHO, I do not think they refer to cildren's 'listening skills' instead they might be referring to the understanding capacity of children.
Suggestions.

Selected
ability to heed advice OR ability to listen to (and be guided by others)
I think "escuchar" here has the sense of "dar oídos, atender a un aviso, consejo o sugerencia": in other words, pay attention to what others say to you, and particularly to their advice, warnings and suggestions. So I think "heed" would fit quite well.
Alternatively, I think you could say "ability to listen to and be guided by others", since "listen to" can similarly have the sense of doing what other people advise:
"listen
2. to pay attention to what someone tells you and do what they suggest"
