New Resources for Working Across Sectors
![Poster](/sites/default/files/news/images/New%20WxS%20Resources.png)
The whole humanitarian system has a role to play in realising children’s rights, including their right to protection. Greater collaboration, action, and investment are needed to ensure all humanitarian interventions are safe, accessible, and child protection sensitive. When protecting children is a central and common objective across sectors, it contributes to greater accountability to children, provides concrete means to prevent violence, exploitation and abuse, reduces harm to children, and strengthens the overall impact of sectoral interventions.
The new Inter-Sectoral Framework for Advancing Children’s Protection and Well-being brings a collective steer for child protection actors and sectoral partners on priority actions for centring children and their protection needs across all programmes, in all sectors, and in all humanitarian responses. It also emphasises the importance of building data, evidence, and learning to enhance practical strategies for collaboration and coordination.
The indicator package is specifically designed to propel children’s protection and well-being in four key sectors of humanitarian response:
- Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM);
- Education;
- Food Security; and
- Health.
Additionally, Competency Frameworks for CCCM, Food Security, and Health actors have been developed to strengthen competencies both within the Child Protection Sector and across all other humanitarian sectors:
- The Child Protection Competency Framework for CCCM Actors;
- The Child Protection Competency Framework for Food Security Actors; and
- The Child Protection Competency Framework for Health Actors.
Available in English, French, Spanish, and Arabic.
