MENA Policy Brief: Whole of Government, Whole of Society Approaches

With the aim to support sharing among governments in the MENA region, IDC and UNICEF conducted a research mapping to analyse trends and identify promising protection and care practices for refugee and migrant children with a focus on child-sensitive alternatives to custody across 9 countries in the MENA region: Djibouti, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan.

This policy brief focuses on detailing whole-of-government, whole-of-society approaches to providing protection and care of refugee and migrant children in the MENA region. It is also paired with another policy brief focused on detailing community and family-based alternative care initiatives for refugee and migrant children in the MENA region, found here.
