Urgent efforts are needed to identify and locate separated children, establish mechanisms for their protection, and facilitate their reunification with their families.

based protection mechanisms, and providing psychosocial support and specialized services for survivors of GBV are essential. FIGURE 2 KAXDA BANAANEY IDPS CAM
