Child Protection in Humanitarian Action

Child Protection in Humanitarian Action involves safeguarding children affected by crises—such as conflicts, natural disasters, or displacements—by ensuring their safety, well-being, and rights are upheld. It includes preventing harm like violence, exploitation, and abuse, providing access to education and healthcare, and creating safe spaces where children can recover and thrive. The goal is to protect children’s dignity and development amidst challenging circumstances, recognizing their unique needs and vulnerabilities, and working collaboratively with families and communities to promote their overall safety and resilience.
