Measuring violence against children in humanitarian settings: A scoping exercise of methods and tools

From May-December 2013 the CPWG Assessment and Measurement Task Force conducted a scoping exercise in order to examine two child protection issues considered “hard to measure” in humanitarian settings: sexual violence against children and violence within the household. The goal of this exercise was to identify existing methodologies and tools to assess these issues, as well as to highlight gaps in current approaches and offer recommendations for further action. This report contains a summary of this exercise.
