COVID-19 Resource Tracker

Children playing

In April 2020, the Alliance COVID-19 Mapping Team began tracking resources and articles on some of the key CPMS Standards and topics around child protection and COVID-19. Almost two years later, this process has produced the Child Protection and COVID-19 Resource Tracker, which contains the final bank of resources collected. This mapping process has also underpinned the Evidence Synthesis Briefs series.
