USA Africa Dialogue Series - Protecting Children Affected by HIV against Abuse, Exploitation, Violence, and Neglect

This technical report explores strategies to protect children orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV (OVC) from abuse, exploitation, violence, and neglect. The report draws from lessons learned by OVC program managers, designers, and policy developers, particularly those associated with the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEFPAR). It identifies gaps in current child protection strategies employed within PEPFAR OVC programs; introduces a range of emerging best practices or promising strategies for preventing and responding to child abuse, exploitation, and neglect; suggests contexts in which each strategy might be useful; outlines ways to measure the success of specific strategies; and provides a list of tools and resources available to program implementers and designers to support implementation of strategies.
