• Definition of CP = protection against physical abuse, emotional abuse, neglect & exploitation.CBCP vs. International Partnerships
In many cases there is not even National Government support, so how can international advocacy help?• Awareness of the issue• Funding• UN CRC; EU CAAC guidelines protection
• Definition of CP = protection against physical abuse, emotional abuse, neglect & exploitation.
• In all cases: CP = prevention and response (laws, info services, qualified staff & funding)
• Community Based = community owned, facilitated – not implemented by WCH, work with existing structures, action plans (including livelihoods)

Syrian refugees in Lebanon (system building at different levels):
- start with child and direct circle around the child – awareness and capacity building, child participation
- Strengthen what already exits, not put in place something new – need to know what is there and how it works
- alignment indigenous/traditional/informal with formal system - advocating for taking responsibility
- Intensive intervention for 2 years – exit planned from entry
-> reduction school drop outs (also Lebanese kids)!

Conclusions and recommendations
CB approach to CP: include children
Long term investment :1. life is not back to normal after emergency is ‘over’
2. Chronic / cyclic recurring emergencies
CB CP needs advocacy at all levels for it to work
Stimulate ownership – but how? Many questions, few answers?
Community based approach makes a difference in particular because prevention is embedded
