Uganda Child policy is placed to enhance and protect the rights of children, the National Child Policy is in fulfilment of the Government of Uganda’s Constitutional mandate on the welfare of children and also a fulfilment of the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development Mission, “To Mobilize and Empower Communities to harness their potential while, protecting the rights of Vulnerable Population groups”.
The National Child Policy 2020 (NCP) demonstrates the commitment by ACFP to ensure the well-being of all children. It is another big stride in the Country’s efforts to uphold children rights and protect them from all forms of abuse, neglect, exploitation and violence.
ACFP collaborates and supports interventions across Acholi Region through the community structures like CPC, Para social workers, Local leaders and government of Gulu City, Gulu District, Agago, Kitgum, Amuru and Nwoya Districts to implement child protection interventions. The critical focus of these interventions are centered towards reinforcing the Community –Based child protection system(CBCPM), advocating for child participation, strengthening coordination between child protection actors and Community structures to ensure that child protection is a community goal
