Child Protection in Outbreaks: Preventing Harm to Children in Infectious Disease Outbreaks (Mini-Guide 5)

This Mini-Guide is aimed at humanitarian personnel working in health and child protection as well as those specialising in mental health and psychosocial support and members of the social service workforce. This Mini-Guide is for use during the preparedness, response and recovery phases of an outbreak, in settings that are in crisis or that become a humanitarian setting.

This Mini-Guide aims to support relevant personnel in:

  • Understanding potential harm to children in the context of infectious disease outbreaks;
  • Identifying appropriate prevention strategies based on the root causes of harm; and,
  • Implementing key intersectoral actions at each step of the project cycle to prevent harm to children in outbreaks.
