Nuestra misión

Elevar la protección de niños y niñas que han sido separados o no están acompañados en situaciones de conflicto y catástrofes naturales a través del fortalecimiento y armonía en la gestión de casos de niños y niñas que han sido separados o no vienen acompañados. El grupo operativo UASC (siglas en inglés) ofrece materiales y asistencia técnica para orientar la dirección de pólizas y programación que trabajan con casos de separación de familias. 

 

Prioridades principales del grupo operativo UASC (siglas en inglés)

  • Garantizar que las normativas técnicas y las herramientas que se apliquen en las intervenciones para niños y niñas UASC reflejen la información más actualizada y comprobada que se haya recibido de todos los operadores incluyendo los de otras disciplinas y los socios locales.
  • Aumentar la habilidad de los operadores en todos los niveles y contextos, en particular la de los operadores locales para que tengan acceso a herramientas técnicas y a información que existe sobre niños y niñas UASC en contextos humanitarios.
  • Facilitar la coordinación, participación y contribución de todos los miembros del grupo operativo UASC además de la colaboración con otros grupos e instituciones internos y externos a la Alianza.
  • Responder a tiempo a todas las preguntas y cuestiones que estén dirigidas al grupo operativo UASC.
