Child Protection

The child protection sector in Syria is comprised of approximately 52 partners including, UN, INGO, Syrian NGO and government agencies operating in 12 governorates. The sector works to prevent and respond to abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence against children through strengthening community-based child protection programming, including psychosocial support, provision of specialized child protection services, mine/explosive remnants of war risk education and strengthening the capacity of frontline workers and volunteers to respond to child protection issues.
