Caring for Child Survivors in Humanitarian Settings: Updates from Pilots in Ethiopia and Thailand

Jour(s): 3

Sexual violence against children is an acute threat both during and after emergencies, which if left unaddressed can have devastating and life-long impacts.  Because of children’s dependency and limited decision-making power, humanitarian agencies encounter numerous obstacles in trying to support this vulnerable population.  To increase the knowledge, tools and resources available to tackle this problem, the IRC has initiated a project on Caring for Child Survivors (CCS), with support from the Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (BPRM), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and UNICEF. In November 2010, IRC’s Caring for Child Survivors Specialist briefed Interaction on this new initiative. Since then extensive work has taken place to develop and field-test practical guidance to meet the case management, health, and psychosocial needs of children families affected by sexual abuse.

 

We welcome you to join this briefing session to hear an update on the CCS initiative and lessons learned from the pilot testing in Ethiopia and Thailand. The IRC will also provide an overview of how it has incorporated this learning to strengthen the overall CCS resource package.

 

Time: 11:30am – 1pm

 

RSVP by Monday, August 1st to Lucy de los Reyes (ldelosreyes@interaction.org) for this event.
