View this email in your browser November 2025 Edition

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. In response to deepening funding shortfalls and shifts in the humanitarian system, the Alliance has issued a Strategic Brief (May 2025–April 2026), which prioritises sustaining life-saving child protection, strengthening technical leadership through the CPMS, and convening our network to adapt and act collectively.

This November 2025 edition showcases how the Alliance and its members are advancing these priorities to protect children and support child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

--> View Past Newsletters This World Children’s Day, the Alliance draws urgent attention to the rights of children affected by humanitarian crises. With 1 in 5 children now living in or near active conflict, many experience harms such as  family separation, forced recruitment, exploitation, and violence.

The theme My Day, My Rights reinforces that children’s rights do not pause in emergencies. Every child has the right to safety, participation, care, and dignity. Child protection is not a luxury—it is an inherent right and must be central to every humanitarian response.   📌 Want to amplify these messages on World Children’s Day?

Yet, without a common language for data, understanding risks, vulnerabilities, and service needs across contexts has been a major challenge. 

To address this, the Alliance has developed a new guidance on standardising CPCM data categories. This common framework helps child protection actors collect, analyse, and use data more consistently—strengthening programme quality, coordination, and global advocacy.

Deadline for Applications: Friday 5th, December Latest Alliance Resources Putting the Pieces Back Together: Centring Children and Their Protection in the Humanitarian Response in Gaza   With the ceasefire in Gaza and the scale-up of humanitarian assistance, the Alliance calls for children’s protection to be placed at the centre of the response.

This statement outlines urgent priorities to meet the needs of Gaza’s 1.1 million children — half of the population — who have endured loss, displacement, and trauma. It calls for child protection to be recognised and funded as a life-saving intervention, on par with other essential sectors.

Grounded in humanitarian principles and the CRC, this statement underscores the urgent need for a coordinated, adequately resourced child protection response to help children in Gaza rebuild their safety, dignity, and futures.

🔗 Read the Full Statement CPHA Practitioners Survey on Capacity and Learning Needs
We are pleased to share the launch of the Report on Child Protection in Humanitarian Action Practitioners Survey: Capacity and Learning Needs, conducted jointly by the Alliance, the Global CP AoR, and UNHCR in 2024. 

This global survey gathered insights from 321 organisations / country-level offices across 95 countries to better understand capacity needs and gaps, learning priorities, and access to technical support on child protection in humanitarian settings.

This report provides important evidence to guide sector-wide investments in capacity strengthening and learning to ensure child protection practitioners are equipped to meet the needs of children in crisis contexts.

📄 Access the Forms Updates from the Alliance Working Groups and Task Forces One Year On from the Bogotá Ministerial Conference to End Violence Against Children   A year after the 1st Global Ministerial Conference in Bogotá, the Alliance reflects on progress and remaining gaps in global efforts to end violence against children. While significant policy gains have been made, millions of children affected by conflict and crisis still face daily risks to their safety and well-being.

The Alliance calls for continued collective action to ensure children affected by crisis and conflict are not left behind in the commitment to end violence against children.

🔗 Read the Full Statement --> New Learning Module Released!   We’re pleased to announce the release of Module 3 of the Learning Series on Tackling Child Marriage: Co-designing Child Marriage Prevention Strategies with Girls and Their Communities.

This technical module focuses on strengthening how we design and implement child marriage prevention strategies that are tailored to the specific risks, protective factors, and contextual realities identified by adolescent girls and their communities. It also guides practitioners on how to reduce stigma and discrimination towards ever-married girls and their families when developing and delivering prevention activities in humanitarian contexts.

  We are pleased to share the Alliance’s new statement: Putting the Pieces Back Together: Centring Children and Their Protection in the Humanitarian Response in Gaza.
As humanitarian assistance increases, children’s protection must be recognised and resourced as a life-saving intervention, on par with food, health, and shelter. The statement highlights urgent priorities for the humanitarian community, including:
  • Strengthening child protection systems and workforce capacity
  • Expanding mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS)
  • Supporting parents and caregivers
  • Ensuring child protection is a central and critical element of the response and also integrated and funded across all sectors
🔗 You can read the full statement here.

  This briefing note is based on a data-gathering exercise led by the Alliance to understand the impact of humanitarian funding cuts on children and their protection. A global survey was completed by 250 child protection practitioners working in humanitarian settings across 55 countries. To complement the survey findings, we conducted in-depth interviews with five child protection agencies—four international and one national.  Access the Report Here Child Protection Case Management Actions for Sudden Programme Closures or Scale-down

This guidance from the Case Management Task Force outlines scenarios where services may need to be scaled back, transferred to another actor, or discontinued. It focuses on unplanned or sudden exit situations and aims to ensure a responsible transition, always prioritising the best interests of children. Parts of it will have relevance for child protection strategies, other than case management.

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. In response to deepening funding shortfalls and shifts in the humanitarian system, the Alliance has issued a Strategic Brief (May 2025–April 2026), which prioritises sustaining life-saving child protection, strengthening technical leadership through the CPMS, and convening our network to adapt and act collectively.

This September 2025 edition showcases how the Alliance and its members are advancing these priorities to protect children and support child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

Your input will help us improve our communication channels so information is easier to find and more useful to you.

On the International Day to Protect Education from Attack, the Inter-agency for Education in Emergencies (INEE) and the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action (the Alliance) jointly condemn all forms of attacks on education and call for all parties to conflict to respect international humanitarian law, to protect schools from attack and military use, and to ensure children can continue their education in safe and protective school environments.


Schools, students, and teachers are not targets. From 2023 to 2024, and now into 2025 we have seen an alarming increase in attacks on education with schools deliberately targeted and destroyed. In this year’s Report of the Secretary General on Children and Armed Conflict, grave violations against children increased by 25% from 2023 to 2024. Globally, 234 million school-age children are affected by conflict, with 85 million children completely out of school due to destruction, attack and displacement. This has to stop.


When education facilities are destroyed, it’s not just physical buildings that are lost, it’s the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of thousands of children; for many children affected by conflict and crisis, school is one of the few places they can feel safe and protected. It’s a place where they not only receive education, but also, psychosocial support, a chance to safely socialise with their peers and, in some cases, food, immunisations, and clean water and sanitation.


Quality education functions as a protective service, where child protection and education actors can work together. School can protect children from exposure to child protection risks, including violence and abuse, recruitment into armed forces, child labour, and early marriage. If schools are closed due to attack or military use, children lose the protection they provide.


In too many conflicts in the world today education systems are systematically targeted, from Palestine, to Sudan, to Ukraine, schools are attacked, students and teachers killed and children are denied their right to education. In Gaza, all schools have been closed with nearly 97% of school buildings damaged or destroyed, meaning 625,000 students have nowhere to learn. In Sudan, attacks on education have increased fourfold year on year, with most schools closed and 18 million children out of school due to the conflict. In Ukraine 3,524 educational institutions have been damaged since the start of the full-scale invasion, with 360 completely destroyed. These devastating figures are just some examples of the extent to which attacks on schools are increasing and how conflict is disrupting education around the world.  


Together, INEE and the Alliance call on parties to conflict to ensure children’s rights are respected as enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and that international humanitarian law is upheld, that schools remain safe from attack and military use, and students and teachers are protected as civilians. We call on all states to use their influence to ensure this basic level of protection for children and education systems is enforced, and violators held to account.


We also call on states to recognise and endorse the Safe Schools Declaration and guidelines, now in their 10th year; they ask states to commit to keeping schools, teachers and students safe and accessible during conflict.


Finally, INEE and the Alliance call upon humanitarian leadership, donors, and governments to ensure integrated child protection and education responses are prioritised and funded for the growing number of children impacted by crisis and conflict so they can be better protected, and so education can continue safely.

View this email in your browser Dear Alliance friends, members, and colleagues, 
  The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action’s Advocacy Resource Pack has been updated to reflect the latest developments on the Humanitarian Reset and its growing implications for child protection and broader humanitarian action.
From the IASC's evolving reform agenda to sharp shifts in humanitarian financing, the new updates summarise key moments, positions, and advocacy opportunities—plus the latest evidence on the impact of funding cuts on child protection.

📘 You can read the updated pack here!
  We welcome your feedback and inputs – please reach out to Elspeth Chapman at elspeth.chapman@alliancecpha.org or Amanda Brydon at advocacywg@alliancecpha.org.

With solidarity,
Elspeth and Amanda --> Explore the Advocacy Resource Pack Brief on the Global Impact of Funding Cuts on Children and their Protection in Humanitarian Contexts
  This briefing note is based on a data-gathering exercise led by the Alliance to understand the impact of humanitarian funding cuts on children and their protection. A global survey was completed by 250 child protection practitioners working in humanitarian settings across 55 countries. To complement the survey findings, we conducted in-depth interviews with five child protection agencies—four international and one national.  Access the Report Here Child Protection Case Management Actions for Sudden Programme Closures or Scale-down

This guidance from the Case Management Task Force outlines scenarios where services may need to be scaled back, transferred to another actor, or discontinued. It focuses on unplanned or sudden exit situations and aims to ensure a responsible transition, always prioritising the best interests of children. Parts of it will have relevance for child protection strategies, other than case management.

Available now! Recordings from the 2025 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action


Let’s continue the learning, discussion, and advocacy with our colleagues and networks!

From the 3rd to the 5th of June, 841 participants from across the globe—including practitioners, donors, academics, policymakers, youth and child advocates, and community leaders—came together for the 2025 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action, hosted by the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action.


Spanning 18 sessions, the meeting explored how the child protection sector is adapting and responding in a rapidly changing humanitarian landscape. The focus was clear: How to strengthen local and national systems and actions, including local ownership and leadership of accountable child protection actions, how to strengthen equitable partnerships for child protection, and how to continue to centre children’s rights and their right to protection - especially in the face of growing political, financial, and operational pressures.


Highlights from the Meeting Included:

  • Strong local leadership and participation: Local actors and national organisations shaped many of the discussions—sharing the leadership roles they have taken, rich experiences across diverse contexts, and practical solutions to entrenched barriers in the system.

  • Children and young people front and centre: Child and youth advocates from conflict and crisis contexts, powerfully reminded us of their current realities, the efforts they are leading and what they gain from this, and the importance of listening to each other and working together.

  • Child protection systems strengthening: Examples of locally owned social protection and child care mechanisms informing public policy and being adapted in times of crises to protect children were shared. Alongside calls to value indigenous knowledge and amplify existing voices before stepping in.

  • Urgent calls for localisation: Participants pushed back against top-down models of capacity “building”, calling instead for shifts in power, resources, visibility, and decision-making to local actors—not as a future goal, but a present, urgent necessity.

  • New ideas to strengthen ground-up approaches to child protection: From interactive ways of facilitating children’s participation in the programme cycle, to community-led project design, participants shared innovations and adaptations that are helping practitioners respond more effectively and collaboratively to child protection risks in today’s complex crises.

  • Recognition of the impacts of the funding crisis and the need to enhance collaboration for continued, quality child protection: Practitioners shared how cuts are reducing critical child protection programmes and shrinking teams—yet also spotlighted how partnerships and collective action, including across sectors, are helping sustain impact.

  • A reaffirmation of core principles: Amid increasing fragmentation, the Alliance’s common standards and frameworks—like the Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action—were seen as anchors that help hold the line on quality programming, effective coordination, and accountability.

  • Hearing directly from donors: A panel discussion with representatives from Norway, ECHO, Denmark, Canada, UNHCR, and Beyond the Classroom Foundation Nigeria shed light on donor priorities, constraints, and strategies for maintaining child protection as a humanitarian priority as well as the challenges of and guidance for strengthening funding to local and national organisations.

  • Emerging findings on the Vancouver Principles: A session shared early findings from an Alliance-UNICEF-Plan study exploring collaboration between peacekeeping operations and child protection actors to prevent recruitment, enable release, and support reintegration of children associated with armed forces and groups.

  • Planting the seeds of an Alliance position and eventual policy on investing in local and national Child Protection Systems and Actors in humanitarian contexts.

This blog series brings together personal reflections from Alliance members and partners. Through these voices, we explore how, in the face of fragmentation and fatigue, the child protection sector is pushing back: reaffirming its core principles, forging stronger partnerships, and insisting that children's safety, dignity, and rights remain central to humanitarian action. In particular, we explore how local leadership, principled partnerships, and collective resolve are shaping the future of child protection in humanitarian settings—from the ground up.

Global Impact of Funding Cuts on Children and their Protection in Humanitarian Contexts View this email in your browser April 2025 Edition

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. To further this mission, the Alliance Strategy 2021-2025 advocates for the centrality  of children and their protection to be recognised and prioritised as essential and life-saving across the humanitarian system.

This April 2025 edition summarises Alliance efforts to protect children and equip child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

--> View Past Newsletters New Briefing Note! Global Impact of Funding Cuts on Children and their Protection in Humanitarian Contexts Drawing on input from over 250 child protection practitioners in 55 countries, and insights from five leading child protection agencies, this new brief on the "Global Impact of Humanitarian Funding Cuts on Children and Their Protection in Humanitarian Contexts" presents stark evidence of the catastrophic consequences that ongoing funding cuts are having on children’s safety and well-being. Services are being suspended, frontline staff reduced, and protection systems dismantled—leaving millions of children at increased risk of abuse, exploitation, trafficking, and even death.

Key Findings Include:
  • Over 1.1 million children are directly affected by suspended child protection programmes in more than 23 countries.
  • Services are being shut down, frontline staff reduced, and national protection systems dismantled.
  • Budget cuts across all sectors are compounding risks of abuse, exploitation, trafficking, and even death.
  • Agencies report growing challenges in meeting the Child Protection Minimum Standards, with a rapidly shrinking workforce and limited resources.
This is a critical call to action. The briefing note, along with key advocacy messages and a communications pack, is now available to support your work with donors, governments, and humanitarian leadership.

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action (the Alliance) is organising the 2025 Annual Meeting on Child Protection in Humanitarian Action on Zoom from the 3rd to the 5th of June 2025.

This year's meeting includes 3 days dedicated to the theme of the meeting, “Protection of Children from the Ground Up - Enhancing Localised Approaches in Conflict and Crises”. 

The meeting will be held in English with translated captions available in Arabic, French, Spanish, and a selection of other languages to ensure accessibility for all participants. There will also be a dedicated session and networking opportunity in both Spanish and French during the meeting at favourable times for participants in those regions. 

This year's theme emphasises locally-led child protection prevention and response actions that are informed and driven by local actors including community, local and national government and organisations, as well as communities and children themselves. It highlights the importance of strengthening local systems and actors, and context-relevant and community-owned child protection including for quality and accountable actions. The meeting will also situate this theme in the context of the current humanitarian funding and coordination reset.

To find more information about the meeting theme and agenda, visit our dedicated webpage in Arabic, English, French, or Spanish.   

Register for the 2025 Annual Meeting

View this email in your browser Dear Alliance friends, members, and colleagues, 
The Advocacy Resource Pack has been updated with important developments.

1. 🔍 Survey Findings - Thank you to the nearly 200 practitioners who have responded so far – including 148 working at country and sub-national levels, and 83 local and national NGOs – across 43 countries.
Findings to Date Show:
  • Funding cuts are severely undermining children’s protection in crisis settings.
  • Essential child protection services are being dismantled, severely impacting the ability of organisations to meet the Child Protection Minimum Standards.
  • Child protection is being hit hard by widespread funding losses.
  • Frontline child protection capacity is rapidly shrinking.
  • Cuts across humanitarian sectors are increasing risks to children’s protection and well-being.
If you haven’t yet completed the survey, there’s still time—it’s open until 15th April. Please take a moment to share your experiences and pass it along to your networks. Once the deadline is closed, we will develop a report to share the findings.

📘Full survey insights to date are available in the updated Advocacy Resource Pack --> 2. Humanitarian Sector Reform

The ERC is currently leading a review to simplify and streamline the Cluster System. This process is being co-led by Ted Chaiban (UNICEF) and Gabriella Waaijman (Save the Children), and focuses on identifying practical, people-centred reforms.

Key Developments Include:
  • Four thematic workstreams have been launched and tasked with proposing 2–3 transformational changes each.
  • Consultations are ongoing with operational stakeholders, local authorities, and other actors.
  • A proposal will be presented to the IASC Principals in June 2025. 
📘 The updated Advocacy Resource Pack includes a full timeline and workstream structure. 

More opportunities to contribute to the process will be shared soon – stay tuned! With solidarity and thanks,
The Alliance Team --> Take the Survey Explore the Advocacy Resource Pack Bank of Key Advocacy Messages for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action   This resources includes three overarching key advocacy messages, alongside further detailed points under each key message, to provide accessible, content to support effective advocacy for child protection in humanitarian action more broadly. They are accompanied by two annexes: one presenting key statistics on the impact of humanitarian crises on children and their protection, and another providing simplified messaging to highlight the essential, life-saving nature of CPHA. Access the Key Messages Here Child Protection Case Management Actions for Sudden Programme Closures or Scale-down

This guidance from the Case Management Task Force outlines scenarios where services may need to be scaled back, transferred to another actor, or discontinued. It focuses on unplanned or sudden exit situations and aims to ensure a responsible transition, always prioritising the best interests of children. Parts of it will have relevance for child protection strategies, other than case management.

View this email in your browser Dear Alliance friends, members, and colleagues, 
  A huge thank you to the 100+ child protection practitioners who have shared their insights in our survey on the impact of funding cuts. Your input is helping to highlight critical challenges.
If you haven’t yet completed the survey, there’s still time—it’s open until 15th April. Please take a moment to share your experiences and pass it along to your networks.

Early findings reveal a deep and widespread impact. Critical child protection services are being cut, frontline staff are being lost, and the ability to protect children across diverse humanitarian settings is under serious strain. 

These are just some of the top takeaways. See the full findings in the Advocacy Resource Pack—and use them in your advocacy efforts.

We’ll keep updating the Advocacy Resource Pack, so check for the 🆕 label to stay up to date.

This is a living document and interactive webpage, and we will continue updating it based on new developments and input from our members and partners.

View this email in your browser February 2025 Edition

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. To further this mission, the Alliance Strategy 2021-2025 advocates for the centrality  of children and their protection to be recognised and prioritised as essential and life-saving across the humanitarian system.

Child Protection in Humanitarian Action Competency Framework now available in Arabic! --> Guidance Note | Resources for Conducting Ethical Research with Children in Humanitarian Contexts Desk Review and Resource Mapping | Accountability to Children in Humanitarian Action Caring for Ourselves in Uncertain Times: A Self-Care Guide for Humanitarian Professionals The US government's recent stop-work orders and rollback of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) initiatives are having far-reaching implications for our sector. The immediate impacts include the cessation of life-saving and life-affirming interventions for millions of children, their families, and communities.

Additionally, funding cuts, layoffs, and a growing sense of job insecurity across the aid sector have added layers of stress to our already challenging work in humanitarian settings. As we continue to support children and families through conflicts and crises, it's crucial that we also look after our own wellbeing.

We wish you a happy and restful end of the year and look forward to working with you in 2025!

We celebrated the protection of children and their rights during four international days... 


In February, we recognised Red Hand Day by featuring key tools and guidance to design and implement programmes for the prevention, release, and reintegration to end the recruitment and use of children in armed conflict. 

In August, we marked World Humanitarian Day with a social media campaign to recognise the vital role of the child protection workforce before, during, and after humanitarian crises. The campaign also shared the Unprotected Overview, which gives a review of the impact of humanitarian crises on children in 2023.  

In November, we recognised World Children’s Day and celebrated the theme of Listen to the Future by spotlighting the voices and experiences of children and youth from the 2023 and 2024 Annual Meetings. Engage with these inspiring leaders by exploring quotes and key messages shared on the Alliance’s Facebook, LinkedIn, and X channels.

We made commitments to protecting children in humanitarian action during the First Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children (EVAC)…

In November, the First Global Ministerial Conference on EVAC marked a historic step in protecting children from violence. Attended by 130 governments, 80 ministers, and 1,400 stakeholders—including children and youth—the conference produced the Bogotá Call to Action, now endorsed by 48 signatories. Over 100 countries pledged commitments focusing on three breakthrough solutions:

  1. Universal access to parenting and caregiver support.
  2. Safe, enabling school environments.
  3. Response and support services for vulnerable children.

A global follow-up mechanism will monitor implementation to ensure real change for children worldwide.

The Alliance played a pivotal role in highlighting the needs of children in crises. Key contributions included:

  • A satellite event showcasing solutions in humanitarian settings, with Latin American children sharing lived experiences and recommendations.
  • A main session on violence in crises, engaging 120+ participants on community-led, data-driven strategies and a powerful call to action from a child advocate from Colombia.
  • Advocacy for parenting support, child protection standards, and early warning systems tailored to crisis contexts.
  • As we move forward, the Alliance remains committed to ensuring that children in humanitarian settings are at the heart of global efforts to break cycles of violence and build safe, supportive environments.

Learn more by reading our statement "A defining moment: Bringing children living in humanitarian contexts into the global fold". 

We made progress towards the Alliance Strategy overarching goal and strategic priorities... 

As 2024 draws to a close, the Alliance reflects on significant strides in advocacy and collaboration to ensure children remain at the centre of humanitarian action. The Alliance began 2024 by launching Unprotected: An Overview of the Impact of Humanitarian Crises on Children in 2023. Developed with contributions from the Advocacy Working Group, Steering Committee, and key partners, the paper highlighted the impact of escalating armed conflict and humanitarian crises on children.

At the 2024 Annual Meeting in June, the session “Can We Do More with Less? How to Continue Serving Children in Need” provided a platform for dialogue on the growing disparity between rising needs and decreasing resources. Representatives from BHA, BPRM, Global Affairs Canada, and ECHO shared practical insights and advice, while participants exchanged best practices, concerns, and opportunities for innovation. 

In September 2024, the Alliance, alongside the Global Child Protection Area of Responsibility, UNHCR, and Save the Children, launched Unprotected: Analysis of Funding for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action in 2023. A key innovation this year also involved closer collaboration with the OCHA Funding Tracking System team, which allowed child protection allocations within multi-sector programs to become visible, offering new insights into funding flows.

In 2024, the Accountability to Children Initiative expanded its membership, welcoming UNHCR, UNICEF, IOM, USAID-BHA, and the CHS Alliance. Other key milestones include collaborating with the Working Across Sectors Advisory Group and partners including CHS Alliance, IOM (Camp Coordination and Camp Management), IRC, and Ground Truth Solutions, to hold a hybrid session on accountability to children during the Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week (HNPW) in May, followed by a session at the Alliance Annual Meeting in Panama in June; and the publication of the easy-to-read desk review and resource mapping on accountability to children, developed as part of the BHA/IRC  Inclusion and Accountability project. 

The initiative provided inputs on a training framework and verification guide aligned with the revised Core Humanitarian Standard commitments released earlier this year. A new learning segment was introduced to the advisory group meetings during the year featuring presentations from UNICEF, Common Thread, Proteknôn Foundation / SOS Children’s Villages, and Ground Truth Solutions / Terre des Hommes, highlighting innovative approaches to accountability to children. To sustain this momentum, the group also finalised its 2025 Work plan, incorporating insights and renewed commitments from members.

This year, the Localisation Initiative made strides in amplifying local leadership within child protection. The initiative held a virtual session on locally-led child protection during the Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week (HNPW) to showcase successful child protection initiatives led by local actors. As well as contributing to key insights from a capacity-strengthening perspective to Unprotected: An Overview of the Impact of Humanitarian Crises on Children in 2023, launched in January 2024, 

The initiative welcomed new members, including Family for Every Child, represented by national NGOs from Italy and Liberia. They supported the development of the Alliance Buddy System, which was established to support new members, particularly local and national NGOs, taking leadership roles within the Alliance (for example DayStar University in Kenya has joined the Steering Committee). 

As well as conducting an in-depth membership review to understand how to enhance engagement and collaboration with and amongst Alliance members including local and national members.

During 2024, the Working Across Sectors (WxS) Advisory Group was established, including members from the Child Protection Area of Responsibility, the Inter-agency Network for Education in Emergencies, Plan International, Save the Children, UNHCR, and World Vision International, and UNICEF amongst others. The group’s priorities for 2024 included finalising its Terms of Reference (ToRs) and Work Plan, as well as organising a strategic workshop for the 2024 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action. The group also co-led a hybrid session at the Humanitarian Partnerships and Networks Week in Geneva, alongside the Accountability to Children Advisory Group, highlighting the growing collaboration with sectors like Camp Coordination and Camp Management.

Throughout the year, the Alliance has launched several key resources to enhance cross-sectoral collaboration: Indicators to Measure Cross-sectoral Contributions to Children’s Protection and Well-being, Child Protection Competency Framework for Camp Coordination and Camp Management Actors, Child Protection Competency Framework for Food Security Actors, and Child Protection Competency Framework for Health Actors. These frameworks are designed to integrate child protection considerations into diverse humanitarian sectors. Looking ahead, the Advisory Group is focused on fostering cross-sectoral partnerships to improve child protection and well-being in humanitarian contexts.

In 2024, the Prevention Initiative and the Prevention Advisory Group was reinvigorated with the onboarding of a new Prevention Focal Point in July. Other key milestones during the year include initiation of the Primary Prevention Framework revision, the relaunch of virtual ‘Clinic Sessions’ for 2024-2025, and refreshing the 2021-2025 Work Plan. In August, the group also revised the Prevention Advocacy Roadmap in collaboration with the Advocacy Working Group, incorporating lessons from advocacy actions such as presentations at the Global Protection Forum and the 2024 Alliance Annual Meeting in Panama.

The Primary Prevention Framework pilot projects in Niger and South Sudan concluded their evaluation phase, highlighting the importance of community involvement throughout programme cycles and the need for enhanced capacity building for community volunteers. The pilots continued to address critical child protection risk factors using a multi-sectoral approach. In South Sudan, efforts focused on preventing child marriage and child labor through education and livelihoods programming, while in Niger, activities aimed to mitigate risk factors for child marriage via education, social protection, and livelihoods support. The Prevention Initiative also held two webinars to further explore the implementation and monitoring and evaluation phases of the pilots.

This year, the Group of Friends on Climate Crisis and Child Protection made progress on exploring the impact of the climate crisis on children and their protection. A major milestone was laying the groundwork for a forthcoming green paper on the topic.

Under the leadership of the Learning and Development Working Group, the Group conducted a comprehensive learning needs analysis. This effort examined the far-reaching impacts of the climate crisis on children’s safety, child protection in humanitarian action programming, and the well-being of practitioners. The analysis also identified key learning needs among CPHA practitioners to better prevent and address child protection risks in the context of the climate crisis. The initial findings were shared at the 2024 Annual Meeting in Panama, where the Group deepened the discussion alongside CP practitioners, as well as child and youth speakers. This collaborative exchange will help shape future initiatives and strengthen child protection responses in a changing climate.

The Alliance Working Groups, Task Forces, and Initiatives produced several resources of all kinds to further the protection of children in humanitarian action...

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. To further this mission, the Alliance Strategy 2021-2025 advocates for the centrality  of children and their protection to be recognised and prioritised as essential and life-saving across the humanitarian system.

This November 2024 edition summarises Alliance efforts to protect children and equip child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

Highlights from the First Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children The First Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children (EVAC) was a landmark milestone in global efforts to protect children from all forms of violence, wherever they are. It was attended by 130 governments, 80 ministers, and 1,400 stakeholders from civil society organisations, academic institutions as well as children, youth and survivors. Key outcomes include an internationally negotiated declaration - “the Bogotá Call to Action” led by the Government of Colombia, which has 48 signatories to date and is still open for endorsement. Over 100 countries presented pledges, including pledges related to the three proven solutions or ‘breakthrough areas’ which are: 1) Universal access to parenting and caregiver support that promote nurturing care; 2) Universal access to safe and enabling school environments; and 3) Response and support services for children who need them. A global follow-up mechanism is being established to monitor implementation, ensuring these commitments drive real change for children worldwide.

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action was a key contributor before and during the conference, working with our members to emphasise the unique needs of children across humanitarian and displacement settings. Its satellite event, ‘Showcasing Solutions to End VAC in Humanitarian Settings’, featured children from Latin America who shared lived experiences from their communities and powerful calls for action. Expert panelists from across governments and civil society, emphasised the importance in investing in the child protection workforce to prevent and respond to crises affected children and the critical role of local organisations. The Alliance also led a session during the main conference on violence in crises, uniting more than 120 participants to explore community-led, data-driven solutions to address VAC across humanitarian settings. Other sessions supported by the Alliance and its members highlighted the importance of parenting and caregiving support tailored to the specific needs of crisis affected children and families, the prevention of child recruitment,  the critical importance of the Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action for quality child protection response in crises, and the urgent need to integrate child protection into early warning systems and Anticipatory Action.

Looking ahead, the Alliance looks forward to continuing its advocacy efforts to ensure the protection of children in humanitarian and displacement settings, where the risks of violence, exploitation, and abuse are greatest, are fully integrated into efforts to realise the commitments made in Bogota. Only when we truly address the critical protection of children in crisis can we ensure cycles of violence are broken and every child can grow up in a safe, supportive environment.

In September 2024, the Egypt Child Protection Sub-Working Group successfully conducted a workshop on programming for unaccompanied and separated children (UASC). The workshop was facilitated by four dedicated members of the sub-working group who participated in the June Unaccompanied and Separated Children Training of Trainers organized by the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action (CPHA).

The facilitators were:
  • Radwa Adawy (UNHCR)
  • Ayman Mohareb (UNICEF)
  • Pasant Aly (Plan International Egypt)
  • Basma Selawnes (Caritas Egypt)
The workshop covered key topics including family separation, prevention of separation, and improved coordination for UASC programming. It brought together 34 participants from various organisations, such as Save the Children, IOM, Caritas, St. Andrew’s Refugee Services, Catholic Relief Services, ICRC, Terre des Hommes, and the United Refugee Network.

Congratulations to the facilitators and participants for advancing important work in child protection! Latest from the Alliance Working Groups and Task Forces Enhancing Collaboration with Academic Institutions   Under the 2021-2025 Work Plan, the Learning and Development Working Group (L&D WG) is committed to enhancing collaboration with tertiary-level institutions and expanding access to child protection in humanitarian action (CPHA) education opportunities for both current and future practitioners.

View this email in your browser View in: Español - Français - عربي Unprotected: Analysis of Funding for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action in 2023 We are pleased to announce the release of our latest report, Unprotected: Analysis of Funding for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action in 2023, in collaboration with the Global Child Protection Area of Responsibility, UNHCR, and Save the Children. This report provides an in-depth analysis of the severe funding gaps that continue to impact child protection in humanitarian settings. As crises escalate worldwide, the report highlights the urgent need for increased and equitable funding to protect the most vulnerable children.

You can access the full report in English here, along with the Executive Summary in Arabic, French, and Spanish. We encourage you to read it and share it with your colleagues and networks using #FundTheFuture to raise awareness!  Key findings include:
  • In 2023, only 29.6% of requested child protection funding was received across UN coordinated appeals.
 
  • Significant disparities exist in child protection funding across humanitarian and refugee contexts, leading to inconsistent and inadequate protection for children. 
 
  • Only 2% of child protection funding went directly to local actors, despite their crucial role in protecting children. 
 
  • Positive steps have been made in improving the visibility of child protection funding through reporting mechanisms like the Financial Tracking Service (FTS), which is critical for transparency. 

The report underscores the need for urgent action to close these funding gaps and ensure that child protection is prioritised in all humanitarian and refugee response efforts. We urge donors, policymakers, and humanitarian leaders to join us in this critical mission to protect children in crises and #FundTheFuture.

The Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action ("The Alliance") envisions a world in which children are protected from abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence in humanitarian settings. Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. To further this mission, the Alliance Strategy 2021-2025 advocates for the centrality  of children and their protection to be recognised and prioritised as essential and life-saving across the humanitarian system.

This September 2024 edition summarises Alliance efforts to protect children and equip child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

The Latin America and Caribbean Regional Subgroup for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action, UNICEF, Save the Children, World Vision, UNHCR and the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action hosted a 3-day regional Child Protection Minimum Standards (CPMS) training from 10th to 12th June 2024 in Panama City, Panama. 

The objective of the training was to build staff and personnel capacity and skills in the Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action to ensure timely and quality protection responses to all children affected by emergencies and humanitarian situations, based on the 2019 version. Thirty-eight participants from 20 countries across Central America and the Caribbean region attended from the host agencies and partner organisations and government institutions. --> Unaccompanied and Separated Children Training of Trainers in Nairobi 
With the exacerbation of conflict regions like Palestine and Sudan, the demand for specialised skills in assisting UASC has never been more urgent. Recent reports highlight staggering numbers: over 6 million internally displaced and nearly 2 million forced across borders due to conflict in Sudan alone. UASC could constitute up to 1% of this displaced populations, according to global projections. 

To tackle this challenge head-on, the UASC Task Force  and the L&D Working Group of the Alliance, in collaboration with UNICEF and supported by the International Rescue Committee, Save the Children International, and UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, rolled out a regional Unaccompanied and Separated Children Training of Trainers for practitioners working in Sudan and neighbouring countries, including Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, and South Sudan. 

Held in Nairobi from June 24th to 27th, 2024, this regional training gathered child protection experts from local, international, and governmental agencies across Sudan and neighbouring countries.

The training enhanced participants' understanding of prevention and response strategies for separation, highlighted best practices for working with UASC, and empowered them to strengthen and expand UASC programming in their contexts. The goal was clear: To strengthen UASC programming in humanitarian settings and ensure a strong, sustainable network of support.

Let’s continue the learning, discussion and advocacy with our colleagues and networks!

Thank you to everyone who attended the 2024 Annual Meeting for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action! This year’s annual meeting hosted 148 participants in Panama City and engaged 594 viewers during the live streamed sessions on YouTube and Facebook.


Throughout the meeting, many participants also expressed their interest in sharing their learning from the sessions with their teams and networks, as well as many interested colleagues around the world who couldn’t attend, or those who missed a session that interested them.


With this in mind, we are very happy to share a selection of recordings in English and Spanish on the Alliance YouTube Channel, with captions available in Arabic, English, French, and Spanish to keep the learning and conversations going!


There are also great live drawings from the sessions, available in English and Spanish, that present the information in a colourful and visual way.


In case you missed it, the meeting focused on the protection of children in escalating conflict and crises, with a specific focus on armed violence, climate shocks, and displacement in the Latin America and Caribbean region. The meeting was held in both English and Spanish and served as an interactive forum for practitioners around the world to collectively advocate for real change, as well as an opportunity to share and discuss their evidence, lessons learned, and successes in protecting children in escalating conflicts in crises at the global and regional level.

Its mission is to support the efforts of humanitarian actors to achieve high-quality and effective child protection interventions in both refugee and non-refugee humanitarian contexts. To further this mission, the Alliance Strategy 2021-2025 advocates for the centrality  of children and their protection to be recognised and prioritised as essential and life-saving across the humanitarian system.

This May 2024 edition summarises Alliance efforts to protect children and equip child protection actors in humanitarian settings.

Now and for decades to come, climate change will exacerbate child protection risks and threats to the safety and mental health of children, and further inequity through its intergenerational impacts. It will contribute to increased conflict, displacement, food insecurity, financial hardship, structural violence; as well as more frequent and intense drought, heat waves, floods, fires, and other climate-related disasters.

'Climate Crisis, Climate Justice, and Child Protection' has been flagged as a crucial area for the Alliance to explore 'looking forward'. The Alliance recognises that achieving a future for children free of violence, and where their rights, protection, and well-being are assured, is inextricable from the climate crisis. Therefore, we need to invest in foundational and exploratory steps, in partnership with our members and partners, to better understand the impact of the climate crisis on children in humanitarian settings, as well as the effects of the climate crisis on our ways of working as a sector.

The L&D Working Group and the Alliance Climate Group of Friends aim to conduct a learning needs analysis to identify gaps, priorities, and opportunities for enhancing knowledge, skills, and capacities on the intersectionality between child protection in humanitarian action and the climate crisis as the stepping stone to design an appropriate learning pathway.

Latest Alliance Resources Inter-agency Child Protection Case Management Data Protection and Information Sharing Protocol Child Labour Learning Package, a part of the Inter-agency Toolkit on Preventing and Responding to Child Labour in Humanitarian Action, is now available in ArabicFrench, and Turkish Lastest from the Working Groups, Task Forces, and Initiatives  New Indicators Package for Cross-Sectoral Contributions to Children’s Protection and Well-being! 
  Are you responsible for monitoring and evaluation or proposal development at your agency or in the response where you work?  Are you trying to measure or mainstreaming and integration of children’s protection concerns across sectors?  The CPMS and AME Working Groups have a new tool for you!  

Partners from across the Alliance and the Education, Food Security, Health and Camp Management sectors have collaborated to develop the Indicators to Measure Cross-Sectoral Contributions to Children’s Protection and Well-being. This new indicator package presents a set of indicators that measure sectoral contributions towards children’s protection and well-being. The package includes the indicators, technical guidance on measurement, and a practical checklist for non-protection specialists to evaluate their programs. Available in English, French, and Spanish.  
New Competency Frameworks for Non-specialist Sectors contributions to Child Protection! 
  Do you ever wonder what other sectors should know about children’s protection? Or what key knowledge or behaviours you should include in job descriptions or training packages to support cross-sectoral work for children’s protection and well-being? Three new competency frameworks have been developed by CPMS and Learning & Development Working Groups to help answer those questions! 

The Competency Frameworks for Camp Management, Food Security, and Health Actors are intended to support humanitarians in these sectors to understand the specific behaviours relevant to their roles that will strengthen the protection, well-being and safety of children.  Developed in close collaboration with inter-agency camp management, food security and health networks like the International Organization for Migration, the World Food Programme and the World Health Organization, these competency frameworks represent a collaborative effort and mutually agreed priorities. They are excellent tools to inform staff and volunteer recruitment, capacity strengthening efforts and performance evaluation as well as to support advocacy for improving cross-sectoral contributions to children’s protection and well-being. Available in English, French, and Spanish.
  For any questions, please contact the CPMS Working group at cpms.wg@alliancecpha.org. --> The L&D Working Group, in cooperation with the Humanitarian Leadership Academy (HLA), the Child Protection Area of Responsibility (CP AoR) for the Türkiye and North West Syria response, UNICEF, and World Vision organised and delivered a CPHA Training of Trainers (ToT) pilot for the Türkiye and North West Syria response in Gaziantep from April 15th to April 19th. The five day training was planned around the following objectives:
  • Describe the objectives and audience of at least three Alliance CPHA learning packages 
  • Demonstrate how to effectively facilitate a participatory learning exercise 
  • Reflect on their strengths as a facilitator and areas for ongoing improvement 
  • Identify the next steps to adapt and plan a CPHA training in their own context 
  • Recall where to find Alliance learning resources and support
During the five days, 34 participants, of which 74% were from Local and National NGOs, successfully completed the residential component of the training. Participants are now expected to roll out trainings before the end of the year. The CPHA ToT took an innovative structure that included a blend of androgogical elements as well as a deeper dive into some key Alliance learning packages.

One of the co-facilitators stated: “The CPHA ToT was an invaluable experience for all participants, myself included, as I had the honour of co-facilitating the ToT with The Alliance for CPHA and NWS CP AoR. This event truly marked the beginning of a collaborative learning journey for CP partners from both NWS and Türkiye, marking a significant milestone in our collective efforts.”

One of the participants said: “Throughout the training, I dove into various essential aspects, including understanding the training cycle, applying adult learning principles, and acquainting myself with four crucial learning packages covering child labor, prevention, CPHA CPMS, and Frontliners learning packages. Moreover, I gained insights into the processes of adapting and contextualising training materials and assessing training needs, crucial for tailoring interventions to specific contexts. One highlight was the opportunity to facilitate a participatory learning activity in front of esteemed colleagues and trainers, which further enriched my learning experience.”

We are really looking forward to hearing more from the training roll out experience from this amazing groups of practitioners! --> Unaccompanied and Separated Children Training of Trainers
The UASC Task Force will be holding the UASC Training of Trainers Training from the 24th to the 27th of June in Nairobi. The ToT will focus on Sudan, with engagement from neighbouring countries such as Egypt, Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya. 

The UASC ToT course is designed to prepare participants to facilitate training on unaccompanied and separated children. The training aims to reinforce participants’ understanding of the specific needs of UASC, highlight good practice in working with unaccompanied and separated children under a protection framework, and provide participants the opportunity to apply learning so they can roll out training on UASC within their own organisation and to other stakeholders.
