THANK YOU to everyone who attended the 2021 Annual Meeting on Child Protection in Humanitarian Action on Preventing Harm to Children.
The 2021 Annual Meeting on Child Protection in Humanitarian Action was held from the 4th to 8th of October over a virtual platform, where Child Protection actors had an opportunity to come together and exchange knowledge and experience, while networking with other agencies, academics, policy makers and donors.
