Pathfinding Countries

Partnering to End Violence Against Children

#

The Pathfinding Global Alliance, launched in November 2024 in Bogotá, Colombia, brings together all stakeholders committed to ending all forms of violence against children by 2030, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals.

This initiative employs a cross-sectoral and multistakeholder approach, involving states, regional and subregional organizations, the UN family, civil society organizations, faith-based organizations, the private sector, development partners, experts, academia, the media, local communities, survivors, children, and youth.

The Pathfinding Global Alliance serves as a platform for partners to share information, successful practices, and lessons learned. It aims to gain momentum for stronger ownership by Member States, enhance country engagement, foster closer connections to local realities through a bottom-up approach, promote peer learning and the exchange of effective practices, strengthen peer accountability, and ensure context-specific partnerships and cooperation.
