Project context

Since 2018, the National Government requested support and technical cooperation from the United Nations System in Colombia, to join forces in addressing the emergency derived from the mixed migratory flow of the Venezuelan population. I support that UNICEF has focused on an annual Response Plan (HAC).

In turn, the current challenges due to multiple-affect emergencies (armed conflict and natural disasters) demonstrate the need for a comprehensive HAC that responds to the specific needs of the territory.

• Carry out analysis of territorial information that allows for a vision of the situation of children and adolescents.

• Have information products that allow disseminating the results of the implementation of emergency response plans.

• Identify and position priority issues regarding the situation of children at the national and territorial level.
