“All sectors of humanitarian response are critical to providing an adequate and holistic response for children who have survived different types of violence, exploitation, abuse and neglect. Following the immediate humanitarian response, all humanitarian sectors have an important contribution to m...ake to the effective rehabilitation and reintegration of child survivors. ‘Mainstreaming’ child protection, or ensuring that child protection considerations inform all aspects of humanitarian action, helps to maximize the child protection impacts of the work that all humanitarians do. ”
How to Use This briefing paper: This briefing paper is a quick reference for Plan International Child Protection in Emergencies (CPiE) staff on how to engage with other sectors operating in the emergency to ensure that child protection principles and considerations inform all aspects of humanitarian programming in other sectors. While there is child protection mainstreaming guidance for how to work with specific sectors (e.g. WASH, nutrition, distribution) this “All Sectors” briefing note can give CPiE staff the big picture of shared child protection mainstreaming messages that should be conveyed to all sectors. This briefing is aligned with the Minimum Standards for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action and the Sphere Standards, as well as Plan International staff feedback on what actions are the most vital for child protection mainstreaming in other sectors.

Soutenir les activités agricoles et pastorales pendant la contre-saison,
afin d’améliorer la sécurité alimentaire des ménages touchés par l’insécurité
Depuis début 2018, le Burkina Faso est confronté à une crise humanitaire
sans précédent. La détérioration rapide de l’insé...curité et l’augmentation
soudaine des attaques armées ont engendré des déplacements
de population qui pourraient atteindre plus de 333 000 personnes
avant la fin de l’année. Les difficultés d’accès aux champs, les destructions
d’infrastructures de production, les vols et les pertes de bétail, ainsi
que l’intensification des conflits intercommunautaires, entravent le
fonctionnement des marchés et détériorent les moyens d’existence
des ménages.
Les besoins humanitaires en augmentation croissante compromettent
non seulement les gains acquis en termes de développement, mais aussi
la cohésion sociale au Burkina Faso. Les zones rurales étant les plus
touchées par la crise, la sécurité alimentaire et l’agriculture revêtent ainsi
une importance capitale pour contribuer au relèvement et à la résilience
des populations affectées ainsi qu’au maintien de la paix.
