The Child Protection Area of Responsibility (CP AoR) and the Care and Protection of Children (CPC) Learning Network at Columbia University invite you to join for a webinar on engaging children as partners and leaders in child protection during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the outset of the pandemic, children and youth were facing unprecedented challenges caused by quarantine measures and school closure policies in nearly every country in the world. At the same time these challenges emerged, child-focused organisations found it harder than ever to communicate with children, needing to adapt their methods of hearing children\u2019s voices and ensuring children\u2019s participation to virtual and \u201csocially distanced\u201d realities. The new \u2018Moving Towards Children as Partners in Child Protection in COVID-19 Guide\u2019 aims to assist humanitarian actors in maintaining and strengthening children\u2019s meaningful participation in their work in response to the current pandemic. During the webinar, International Institute for Child Rights and Development (IICRD) will present on the child participation tip sheets and tools that have been adapted for the COVID-19 context and Artolution and #CovidUnder19 will share their experiences meaningfully engaging children in their initiatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
