La Convention Internationale relative aux droits de l'enfant (CDE) est le socle juridique
international qui garantit à chaque enfant le droit d'être protégé contre toutes les formes de violence, de maltraitance, de négligence et d'exploitation. Pour atteindre les cibles des ODD en matière de protection de l'enfant et garantir que « personne ne soit laissé de côté », les résultats de l’impact 3 et 4 du Plan stratégique de l'UNICEF 2026-2029 visent « 100 millions d’enfants en moins dans la pauvreté multidimensionnelle » et « 350 millions d’enfants protégés contre la
violence » d’ici 2029. Conformément à la CDE, les pays ont l’obligation de prendre des mesures pour garantir que les enfants soient protégés et pris en charge par un personnel qualifié. Le corps de travail des services

objectif commun : protéger, soutenir, promouvoir et autonomiser les personnes vulnérables.
