Children are disproportionately affected by humanitarian crises. They are a distinct group from adults, with unique needs and capacities that vary by age, gender, ability, legal status, and other individual characteristics. The centrality of children and their protection in humanitarian action is a shared responsibility of all humanitarian sectors, actors, staff and volunteers.

Advancing children’s protection and well-being across all sectors of humanitarian action requires strengthened competencies both within the Child Protection Sector and across all other humanitarian sectors. Child Protection actors need the skills to engage outwardly and work more closely with other sectors. Meanwhile, actors from all other humanitarian sectors need the skills to contribute to the collective goal of meeting the needs of children most at risk.

The competencies required by Child Protection actors are outlined in the Child Protection in Humanitarian Action (CPHA) Competency Framework.

For actors in the Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM), the competencies required have been defined in a companion competency frameworks: The Child Protection Competency Framework for CCCM Actors

This competency frameworks complement the CPHA Competency Framework, and is intended to support humanitarians in the CCCM sector to understand the specific behaviours relevant to their roles that will strengthen the protection, well-being and safety of children. The overall goal of The Child Protection Competency Framework for CCCM Actors is to support food security actors to advance their collective contributions to protect children affected by crisis, through CCCM programming and integrated and collaborative efforts with child protection actors.
