Additional Context: As described, the services most affected by funding cuts in child protection are those that require sustained, direct contact with children and families over time. In particular, reductions have affected safe spaces and structured activities for children (child-friendly spaces, group psychosocial support, recreational and educational activities in safe environments, including adapted shelters); individual child protection case management (follow-up, coordination with social services, and referrals for children at risk of abuse, neglect, exploitation or repeated displacement); family and caregiver support (parenting sessions, psychoeducation, and counselling for parents and caregivers of children exposed to shelling, displacement or violence); and outreach and identification of high-risk children, including those living in collective centres, remote rural areas, or close to frontline communities.
