Mexico: safe spaces for children on the move
Friendly Spaces are designed to protect children from physical harm and psychosocial distress and to help them continue learning.
Juli and other children attend several classes aimed at reducing educational gaps as a result of the migratory path.
“All children everywhere have the right to protection and a quality education. Integrating child protection and education activities in humanitarian emergencies reduces children’s vulnerability and exposure to risks such as exploitation, abuse, and violence,” says Corita Tassi, EU Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations' expert on protection, gender and education in emergencies for Latin America and the Caribbean.
“Multi-sectoral collaboration is one of our key priorities to promote access to rights in a safe environment and to help restoring a sense of normality, dignity and hope for all affected girls and boys,” she says.
