Health in Emergencies and Humanitarian Settings Package of Concept Notes Across the world, humanitarian crises are becoming more frequent, complex and persistent, affecting more children than ever before. While encouraging progress has been achieved in improving child survival and wellbeing during the last several decades, conflicts, political and economic instability, climate change and natural disasters, displacements and public health emergencies have threatened hard-fought development gains and, in many places, reversed them.

A knowledge resource selected by UNICEF for humanitarian practitioners everywhere Sector-wide analysis of early childhood development and education in emergencies in Colombia and considerations to strengthen systems globally There is an urgent need to strengthen early childhood development and education in emergencies (ECDEiE) globally. Colombia has faced protracted and acute crises for decades. Also, the country has applied a unique approach to holistic and integrated ECDE policy formulation. We argue that these characteristics offer a valuable country-case to identify barriers and levers to the operationalization of ECDEiE. We applied a sector-wide analysis protocol that harmonized components of the Humanitarian Programme Cycle by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee and of a framework to characterize the governance of ECDE systems. The study outlines how the policy and program characteristics identified may represent levers or barriers to the effective operationalization of ECDEiE in Colombia. We discuss how these attributes could be considered in the trans-sectoral dialogue between ECDE and humanitarian actors with the aim of strengthening ECDEiE systems globally.

A knowledge resource selected by UNICEF for humanitarian practitioners everywhere U-Reporters in Situation and Programmatic Monitoring: UNICEF Cote d’Ivoire’s experience in COVID-19 RapidPro software, U-Report applications and youth engagement enabled UNICEF and the Government of Cote d’Ivoire to monitor and adapt programming in the context of COVID-19. U-Reporters and young bloggers were proactively engaged to identify and address false information around COVID-19 using the U-Report platform. Polls collected critical information while face-to-face data collection such as surveys and facility assessments were not possible due to movement restrictions. U-Reporters, already skilled in digital platforms, were engaged in an innovative pilot as third-party monitors (TPM) during Child Health Day campaigns. U-Reporters were based in their communities, equipped with knowledge from their communities and did not need to travel in contract to traditional TPM. U-Reporters as a TPM modality was found to be a cost-efficient option to explore further. The flexibility of RapidPro software, ability to adapt U-Report information sharing and data collection, and engagement of U-Reporters contributed to an adaptive response over time.

A knowledge resource selected by UNICEF for humanitarian practitioners everywhere Immunization in Emergencies and Humanitarian Settings Immunization is one of the most cost-effective public health interventions, averting an estimated two to three million deaths every year. In these contexts, there is limited capacity to carry out basic health system activities, such as vaccination programmes, thus facilitating disease outbreaks. Supply chains become sporadic; cold chains lose viability; beneficiaries avoid dangerous travel to health centres; and human resources are dissipated, creating ever-larger pools of unvaccinated children that grow and jeopardize herd immunity. This document presents the issue, UNICEF's response and programmatic priorities, and the way forward.

A knowledge resource selected by UNICEF for humanitarian practitioners everywhere IASC Non-Binding Guidelines on the Use of Armed Escorts for Humanitarian Convoys The purpose of the guidelines is to assist a wide range of actors on when and how to use military or other forms of armed escorts to accompany humanitarian convoys. In July 2011, the 79th meeting of the IASC Working Group requested the IASC Task Force on Humanitarian Space and Civil-Military Relations, an IASC subsidiary body, to update the guidelines. The following text is the result of consultations and collaboration between IASC members, in addition to the United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS), Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) and field colleagues from a variety of organisations. This updated document reflects the evolution of security risk management procedures within the UN and non-UN organisations, the increase of actors now commonly present in humanitarian operating environments, and the increasing complexities of undertaking principled humanitarian action.

A knowledge resource selected by UNICEF for humanitarian practitioners everywhere Guidance on Reopening Early Childhood Education Settings As countries make decisions to reopen schools, there are unique considerations related to opening early childhood education (ECE) settings, in order to ensure holistic approaches to nurturing care and learning for young children. Reopening ECE settings can provide children with much-needed emotional support and learning opportunities, and it offers reliable childcare options for parents returning to work. Though there will be challenges, young children are highly resilient and adaptive. With clear and consistent instructions and a nurturing environment, they will be able to adjust and thrive in their new learning environment. This guidance note outlines key principles and practical measures for decision-makers to consider before, during and after the transition from closure to reopening. It focuses on safe operations in ECE settings, staff training and support, child well-being and development, and parental communication and support. On this page, you will also find additional resources, developed by UNICEF, for continuing professional staff support and enhancing communications with teachers and administrators, parents and primary caregivers, and decision-makers. This guidance is aligned with the updated Framework for Reopening Schools, released by UNESCO, UNICEF, the World Bank, the World Food Programme and UNHCR.
