Child Protection Specialist

UNICEF works in some of the world's toughest places, to reach the world's most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential. Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up. For every child, a champion UNICEF in China promotes policies and laws that better deliver on children's rights. We have about 100 staff members working with the Government of China and other partners to ensure that the benefits of the country's development reach the most impoverished children. And we share what we learn with others. The Child Protection Section works to support key ministerial partners to build a comprehensive integrated child protection system with the aim of preventing and responding to all forms of violence against children. The child protection programme of UNICEF China has been developed based on that commitment and focuses on enhancing integrated child protection services covering all children; building a skilled and knowledgeable child protection and allied workforce; increasing family, school and community awareness to promote positive behaviours and norms and provide early protection; and strengthening an enabling legal and policy framework and child protection mechanism, programmes and facilities. The programme includes prevention and response to violence and exploitation, both off-line and online and encompasses working with information and communications technology authorities and companies.
