Background information/programme Outline/History Since the Country Programme Action Plan was signed between the Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) and UNICEF in March 2008, there have been significant changes in the situation of children and women in Sri Lanka. In 2008, up to the first five months of 2009 there was a dramatic deterioration of the security situation in the North of the Country with the escalation of the conflict, which significantly jeopardized the protection, survival and development of children. In addition to being recruited, killed and maimed, a large number of children were lost or separated from their families

4 At the end of the conflict in May 2009, over 280,000 persons were displaced included an estimated 40 per cent children under the age of 18 years, with a significant number of children below the age of 5 years 1. As of end of August 2010, 271,842 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) have been released from the camps and either returned to their places of origin or accommodated with host families, in transit sites or in institutions. Displacement and the slow pace of resettlement and reconstruction have increased the vulnerability of children and women affected by the conflict such as the situation of the large number of single headed households, including women and children headed households. During the second half of 2009 and throughout the first six months of 2010, the security situation in the country greatly stabilized. Nevertheless, there remains a serious gap in the availability of services in conflict affected areas and even where services are available there is a trust deficit that is quite detrimental to overall protection of children. In the North, insufficient human resources and budget allocation for child protection remains a challenge. Except for Jaffna, there have been insufficient CRPOs to cover all DS Divisions. In the East, in Ampara, out of 20 DS Division there are only 6 CRPOs and in Trincomalee there are no CRPO. Given the lack of space for strong NGOs, monitoring and responding to issues of child protection may be severely hampered. Similarly, the government financial allocation are not sufficient to cover the needs of children and families for reunification and reintegration, interim care/safe house for child victims of abuse and community prevention activities. In Sri Lanka, a large number of social protection systems are in place to support poor families. At the end of 2009, a review conducted by UNICEF 2 on existing safety-nets for vulnerable families and children shows that the social protection programs in place support mostly low-income families. However, the review also noted that these safety nets rarely meet the needs of children in need of care and protection such as child workers, marginalized families, single-headed households, school drop-outs. Moreover, a 2008 study 3 of the Asian Development Bank on the Social Protection Index showed that only two per cent of the total social protection budget is dedicated to children, reaching 35.6 per cent of the national children population. 1 Major General (ret.) Patrick Cammaert, Special Envoy of the Special Representative for Children & Armed Conflict, Mission report, Visit to Sri Lanka December 2009, p.5 2 Social safety nets for vulnerable families in Sri Lanka, UNICEF 2009, unpublished. 3 Social Protection Index for Committed Poverty Reduction, Asian Development Bank,

5 Main child protection issues in the North and East include protection of separated and unaccompanied children, of vulnerable children, discrimination based on caste and other status, risks of mines and un-exploded ordnance, personal identity documents for children and sexual abuse against children and women. Nation-wide, family care and protection including migration and residential care remain important issues especially in the south. In addition, violence and abuse against children such as early marriage and child sex tourism, as well as the dysfunctional justice for children are in need of attention. Key priorities for the last 2 years of the Country Programme Action Plan: Restoring/strengthening child protection services in North, East and plantation communities; Implementation of existing laws through specialized systems, capacity building and reintegration programmes; Reinforcing links between government bodies and community based structures related to child protection; Reintegration programmes for children affected by armed conflict and children in contact with the law; Mine Risk Education, advocacy for the adoption international instruments banning landmines and other explosive devices, and victim assistance; Provision of social support to vulnerable families including, migrant families, single parent and women-headed families and street children to ensure child protection; Provision of social support to children in unforeseen protection emergencies; and Support national, provincial, district and divisional child protection institutions in planning, budgeting and coordination
