The baseline & needs assessment report for The Joining Forces for Child Protection in Emergencies (JF-CPIE) project
The Joining Forces for Child Protection in Emergencies (JF-CPiE) project is a multi-country project bringing together the six largest child rights organisations in Germany to improve the protection of vulnerable children and adolescents living in refugee and internally displaced person (IDPs) settings and host communities across different locations within Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Colombia, Ethiopia, and South Sudan (i.e., 12 project locations in total).
To support the project implementation, a baseline and needs assessment was carried out by independent consultants operating at the within-country and global level between November 2022 and January 2023.
The baseline study provided quantitative insights especially into knowledge and awa-reness levels around child projection risks and behaviours within target communities. That way, it provided initial values for JF-CPiE’s three outcome indicators, as specified in the project logframe.
