Children Who are at Risk of their Protection Rights being Violated Annex

Protection risks of children, their families, and their communities are exponentially compounded and increased during crises. Understanding historical and crisis-specific vulnerabilities and disparities in services allows both sectors to approach planning, interventions, and policy-making from a more informed perspective. 

As both sectors explore programmatic interventions, consider the following questions:

• How do these specific circumstances and experiences of each high-risk population impact a child’s ability to safely and fully access and participate in learning?
• What are the specific barriers or challenges that prevent or limit access and participation?
• Are existing learning interventions able to accommodate children’s specific protection and
  learning needs with no, little, or substantial additional inputs? What inputs are required?
• Are government policies and school cultures/infrastructure welcoming, explicitly mitigate
  protection risks, and foster equity now and for the future?

Consider the specific needs of the following At Risk Children. The list represents only some At Risk children. Each response needs to identify and analyse specific groups and risks.
