The Reality of Shifting Power to Local Actors: Case studies on child protection initiatives in Nigeria, Kenya, & Malawi
To better understand the experiences of local actors who have engaged with the international humanitarian response, the Care and Protection of Children (CPC) Learning Network and the Child Protection Area of Responsibility (CP AoR) documented initiatives aiming to increase engagement of national organisations in child protection coordination mechanisms across Nigeria, Kenya, and Malawi. There were many overlapping themes across the case studies, such as lack of funding for local organizations, operational capacity building needs/challenges, and more. During the webinar, we plan to share overarching findings from the three case studies, and have a candid discussion around approaches to transferring power into local hands, challenges, promising practices, and lessons learned.
Statement by Mr Gustavo Gonzalez, UN Resident Coordinator and Humanitarian Coordinator in the Philippines
24 Jan, 2022
One month ago today, Typhoon Rai pummeled 11 regions of the Philippines in the second deadliest disaster to hit the globe in 2021. The typhoon brought violent winds, floods and storm surges, affecting at least 8 million people, and leaving a path of destruction in its wake. The Government was prepared for the storm, having pre-emptively evacuated hundreds of thousands of people to evacuation sites across the country. Thankfully, this saved countless lives. But as assessment results have come in over the past month, the sheer extent of the typhoon’s destruction is now all too clear. It damaged infrastructure and livelihoods on a comparable scale to Typhoon Haiyan, forcing 2.7 million people from their homes, damaging almost l.4 million houses, and affecting 514 towns and cities, 100 of which still have power outages or no power at all.
