About ACCIÓN POR LOS NIÑOS

Who are we?

ACCIÓN POR LOS NIÑOS is committed to the defense and protection of the rights of girls, boys and adolescents. Therefore, we develop actions from a protection approach facing situations of discrimination, abuse, physical punishment and humiliation, sexual violence, online harassment, among others to which girls, boys and adolescents are exposed.

Objective

We affirm the need for a protection system that ensures that NNA receive services with effectiveness, efficiency and timeliness, which implies an effort from the public sector, social organizations and the NNA themselves. We seek to influence the issuance of norms and guidelines and the allocation of resources in order to ensure that from the State, policies, action programs, coordination spaces, operational protocols and participatory processes are guaranteed that strengthen the protection system.
