The Child Protection (CP) and Gender-Based Violence (GBV) sub-sectors in Lebanon showed commitment to improving coordination among their partners regarding the case management of children survivors of GBV. Both sub-sectors have included a key action point in their Annual Workplans in 2022/ 2023 a priority related to the contextualization of the second edition of global UNICEF/ IRC global guidelines 1 for caring for child survivor and agreed to roll it out with relevant Child Protection and GBV partners in Lebanon.
Guidelines can be found on https://www.unicef.org/documents/caring-child-survivors-sexual-abuse-guidelines-Dec2023.

UNICEF on behalf and in consultation with the CP and GBV sub-sectors agreed in 2024 on the importance of rolling out trainings on the new guidance for both sub-sector partners to enhance their capacities to respond to these cases in adherence to global standards and ensure the best possible quality.
