Building the investment case for ending violence against children - Toolkit

Ending violence against children makes economic sense. Spending on child protection and well-being should be seen as an essential investment in building human capital and ensuring people-centred development across the lifecycle. Yet current levels of spending on the prevention and response to violence remain low. Building an investment case for ending violence against children is a powerful tool to change that. It can demonstrate the significant social and economic returns that can be achieved by strengthening investments in cross-sectoral services for children and their caregivers. It supports advocacy to place child protection and well-being high on the political agenda, and to ensure it is duly embedded in national and local development plans.
