• Child Protection

The Child Protection Sub-Sector (CPSS) is a coordinating body that brings together both International and National agencies functioning as part of and under the umbrella of the Protection Sector Working Group to prevent and respond to abuse, neglect, exploitation, and violence against Rohingya and Host Community children affected by conflict. This coordination mechanism supports, advises, and advocates for timely and standardised prevention and response activities in children’s best interests, establishes links with and strengthens national child protection systems and promotes actions that place children at the centre of the response.
