The Impact of COVID-19 on Children
We are working in collaboration with a number of international key partners to deliver three COVID projects, so that children have what they need to reach their potential, particularly those children who face adversity, as we navigate the COVID Era.
Compounding crises, including COVID-19, have abruptly thrust the rights and well-being of children and families into greater risk, around the world.
While around the globe, we all are working to manage the impact of COVID-19, in the process we may risk overlooking its impact on children facing the greatest adversities. We are working closely with partners to deliver these three COVID-19 projects:
Learning from Past Pandemics
We are protecting children’s wellbeing by learning from past epidemics to better inform COVID-19 policies and practices: We have drawn together themes and lessons into this Learning Report One, through a brief scan of the literature and focus group consultations with humanitarian and child experts.

Learning from the Present Pandemic: The COVID 4P Log
We are informing a global understanding of policies and practices to support children’s wellbeing during this COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID 4P Log is an international smartphone app, created to record practitioners’ and policymakers’ experiences of supporting children’s rights and wellbeing throughout this pandemic, by asking a daily question over 8 weeks. Regular thematic Learning Reports are informed by the data collected and used to prompt policy and practice change.

Rebuilding from COVID
We are securing children’s wellbeing by learning for the future. As the pandemic recedes and post-COVID recovery takes priority, we look to develop an Economic and Social Response Framework to enable national and local governments to build resilience and sustainability for children’s wellbeing.
