Rights of the Child and Holistic Development

• Rationale: Children from marginalised communities face multiple deprivations, including lack of access to quality education, protection from harm, and opportunities for holistic development.

• Goal: To ensure that every child, including those with disabilities, enjoys their rights to survival, development, protection, and participation in a safe and inclusive environment.

• Core Strategies: Promoting child rights and protection systems; ensuring access to quality education and learning outcomes; empowering children's collectives and voices; building awareness for child-friendly policies; strengthening community-based child protection mechanisms.

• Expected Outcomes: Improved school enrollment and retention; functional child protection systems at the community level; empowered children who can articulate their needs; increased community ownership for child wellbeing.
