Strengthening Peace building and Recovery Results for Children and Women - UNICEF
This project seeks the improvement of children and women protection in humanitarian as well as post conflict contexts. It aims to do so by reinforcing the capacities of UNICEF in the field of Disaster and Risk Reduction (DRR), post conflict rehabilitation and peace building including in fragile context. UNICEF is active before, during and after crises. Its double humanitarian and development mandate as well as its operational capacities make it an important partner in humanitarian context and within the frame of transition between humanitarian and rehabilitation stages.

| Background |
External reviews and UNICEF’s field leadership in conflict-affected countries point out that UNICEF’s approach to conflict sensitivity and, in particular, peacebuilding remains too ad hoc and inconsistent, and lacks a systematic approach . UNICEF’s understanding of peacebuilding and its contributions to peacebuilding varies across its sectors. The complex nature of violent and conflict-affected situations, including the multiplicity of actors and processes, also requires UNICEF staff to develop capacities beyond their immediate technical or sectoral skill sets. |
