Notre mission
Le groupe de travail sur les "Standards minimum pour la protection de l'enfance" (SMPE) soutient la définition participative de normes sectorielles pour la protection de l'enfance dans l'action humanitaire, encourage leur utilisation et leur institutionnalisation et tire les leçons apprises afin de les améliorer.
Les Standards minimums pour la protection de l’enfance dans l’action humanitaire
L’un des ensembles de standards humanitaires les plus utilisés, les SMPE constituent une solution éprouvée pour les praticiens de la protection de l’enfance qui cherchent à approfondir leurs connaissances professionnelles et à améliorer les programmes de leurs organisations.
Mettre en œuvre les SMPE à travers les différents secteurs humanitaires
Chaque acteur humanitaire a une responsabilité et un rôle à jouer dans la protection des enfants et la promotion de leur bien-être. La collaboration entre les secteurs est cruciale pour atteindre ces objectifs et tirer le meilleur parti des ressources disponibles.
