During emergencies, children are often exposed to injuries, exploitations, abuses and other dangers.

SSWOCO’s created Child Friendly Spaces (CFS) in Malakal PoCs and Kodok use a Child Rights programming approach to mobilise communities to provide safe spaces and create protective environments for children affected by communal fighting and floods. Our CFS provide children with safe environment and its integrated programs include play, recreation, education, mental health and psychosocial support, as well as providing information about other support services available to children.  

SSWOCO’s supported Child-Friendly Spaces offer children a safe place to play and establishment of routine and structure support to children in dealing with the difficult experiences they have been through during the conflict.
