Joint paper on child-sensitive accountability from ChildFund Alliance, Children International, Child to Child, Plan International, SOS Children's Villages International, Save the Children, UNICEF and World Vision International.

ChildFund Alliance’s Child-friendly Accountability initiative aims to improve the child protection system at the local, regional and national level. It will ensure that children and youth are able to monitor and improve local protection systems by building their knowledge, supporting them in identifying protection gaps and facilitating direct action or advocacy with their communities to address these gaps.

In a study of the views of children on the issues of violence and exploitation, ChildFund Alliance conducted over 50 focus groups in 41 countries so that their voices can be heard as part of the post 2015-agenda. The children cited the top three things they want world leaders to do – raise awareness of the issues, enact laws and punish offenders – as well as give examples of the worst forms of violence and exploitation.

Este artículo defiende la importancia de proteger a las NNA a través de la participación infantil, y avanza en la operativización de esta propuesta a través de la presentación de un embrión de marco de acción que facilite la integración del concepto de participación infantil en el conjunto de estrategias que persiguen avanzar en la erradicación de la violencia hacia las NNA.
