EDUCATION

Our statement: All over the world and whatever the context, education is a fundamental human right for all children and youth. A quality education provides to children and young people the skills, capacities and confidence they need to grow up in live. Education creates the voice through which other rights can be claimed. Displacement has a devastating impact and contribute to an education being denied or interrupted. Children and youth may suffer from traumatic experiences and a lost of social networks that provide protection and wellbeing. We work to ensure that all displaced children and youth enjoy quality education that is relevant to their psychosocial, emotional and cognitive development. Displaced children and youth are highly marginalised in accessing quality education. Recognising that governments are the primary duty bearer, we then support their efforts to uphold their duties, including through teacher professional development and the construction or rehabilitation of schools. Young women and men are provided with opportunities for post-primary education, including technical, agricultural and vocational training.

Protection & SAFETY

Our statement: contribute to provide protection for those who are in crisis will always be at the heart of what we do because protection is a human responsibility. People affected by conflict or natural disasters need to be assisted and protected from the effects of such crises. Our work with affected people is to advocate for the respect of their rights, to lead Child Protection initiatives and to support individual protection based on vulnerability.
