No one institution, organization or government can tackle critical issues in isolation; it is only through working in partnership that we can work towards eradicating violence against children.
ISPCAN brings together the country, regional and global organizations with the influence, expertise and resources required to transform how child abuse and neglect is prevented worldwide.
By taking a public stand on key issues, we strive to deliver real change through a broad coalition of dedicated multidisciplinary partners dedicated to the protection of children everywhere.
Over one billion children every year experience violence. It is happening everywhere and remains alarmingly widespread. It harms health, development and strips away dignity. However, we know progress is possible and we have an opportunity to end it.
Over the last two decades, sustained global leadership has brought together governments, civil society, faith-based actors, the private sector and children themselves. At ISPCAN we know that multisectoral, coordinated action, under committed leadership delivers results.
To accelerate progress to keep children safe from harm, ISPCAN are calling on Ministries of Health to champion multisectoral action for child protection.
Ending violence against children is a key accelerator for achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. As UN reforms have the potential to impact violence against children at the global level, strong leadership at national level is critical to ending child abuse and neglect. Ministries of Health have a pivotal role to play in driving a public health approach.
