A Systems Approach to Child Protection. World Vision Discussion Paper

This paper explains World Vision’s understanding of a systems approach to child protection, its concept of a child protection system and key implications for programming. While the perspectives in this paper are similar to and influenced by those articulated by other organisations, it also seeks to reflect World Vision’s unique identity and opportunities. It is hoped, therefore, that this paper will contribute to the ongoing fruitful dialogue between agencies, organisations, governments and other stakeholders about a systems approach to child protection.
