Child protection issues
In many cases, a child will be exposed to different types of violence, exploitation and abuse, each with their own characteristics.
Changes in legislation,policies, services and social norms can improve the protection of children in multiple ways;
Armed violence reduction
Birth registration
Child labour
Child marriage
Child protection and Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs)
Child recruitment by armed forces or armed groups
Child trafficking
Children without parental care
Children with disabilities
Family separation in emergencies
Female genital mutilation/cutting
Gender based violence in emergencies
Justice for children
Landmines and explosive weapons
Psychosocial support and well-being
Sexual violence against children
To protect a child is in our attribution as Bible says; Luc 18:16
Every child needs protection
