Consultant for Baseline survey - CBOCSS Project (extension)
1. Introduction
Founded in 1937, Plan International is a development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We strive to advance children’s rights and equality for girls all over the world. As an independent development and humanitarian organisation, we work alongside children, young people, our supporters and partners to tackle the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge. For over 80 years we have been building powerful partnerships for children, and we are active in over 75 countries.
Plan International has been working in Vietnam since 1993. Our work supports marginalized children and youth, especially adolescent girls and young women, to start life and grow up physically and mentally healthy and lead the way to shape their own future. We believe girls have the power to change the world. Our ambition is to work alongside them and together act so that 2 million girls in Vietnam can learn, lead, decide and thrive.
2. Project Background and Objectives
Building on an ongoing Plan International Vietnam (PIV) led project with DOLISA to prevent online violence against children in ethnic minority communities of Quang Binh and Kon Tum provinces, this project focuses on addressing the identified gaps in the child protection system to respond to Online child sexual exploitation and abuse (Online CSEA). By working with adolescents, schools, parents and service providers, the project will set up an innovative community-based survivor support model that will facilitate and increase the reporting of OCSEA and strengthen the quality of services for survivors.
Overall objective: Adolescents aged 10-18 years, particularly girls and adolescents from ethnic minorities, access age and gender responsive, survivor-centred cross-sectoral support for OCSEA through a community-based pilot model.
- Outcome 1: Adolescents, particularly survivors of OCSEA, girls and adolescents from ethnic minorities, have enhanced skills and agency to report and access support.
- Outcome 2: The community-based OCSEA survivor support model is established and strengthened to support survivors with active engagement among families, schools and local government.
- Outcome 3: Knowledge on the community-based OCSEA survivor support model's transferable innovative best practices are identified and disseminated.
