Infographic: WAPA’s methodology in four stages, from its beneficiaries to their lasting (re)integration.
Text version
  • Our beneficiaries: children associated with armed forces and armed groups; child survivors of sexual violence; children born of rape; displaced children.
  • 1. Protection and safety — Depending on the situation: reception, medical care, family tracing, appropriate care arrangements.
  • 2. Identifying and assessing needs — Understanding each child’s situation in order to define support suited to their age and context.
  • 3. Tailored support — Mental health and psychosocial support. Life plan: education, vocational training and income-generating activities. Interventions vary between programmes: not every child goes through the same stages.
  • 4. Lasting (re)integration — Into their families and/or communities, in an environment that supports their development and respects their rights.
  • Transversal themes: local partnership; respect for children’s rights; awareness raising and advocacy; evaluation and learning.
