Policy Paper on Reporting & Help-seeking Mechanisms for Violence Against Children in Malaysia

Evident supported the UNICEF Malaysia Country Office to research and consolidate the data regarding reporting mechanisms for violence against children in the Malaysian context for a brief policy paper to inform their government advocacy.   This assignment included a rapid mapping of the current reporting infrastructure in Malaysia mechanisms – including helplines and reporting hotlines/portals and the broader child protection infrastructure for responding to violence against children, including CSEA. It further explored the global research evidence and regional good practice examples.   The paper distilled this evidence, to articulate ten concrete actions that could underscore advocacy to government for practical improvements to the reporting mechanisms for violence against children in Malaysia.
