Child Development and Protection Sub-Cluster Meetings, October 2022 to August 2023Download Document: Rwanda-CDPSC-Meeting-Brief_FS-24-654-D4I-508c.pdf (649 KB)Abstract: In 2022, the National Child Development Agency Rwanda established the Child Development and Protection Sub-Cluster (CDPSC) coordination mechanism to enhance collaboration between actors in early childhood development (ECD) and the child protection sector. The CDPSC is comprised of governmental and non-governmental institutions and operates under the National Gender and Family Cluster (NGFC) chaired by the Ministry of Gender and Family Promotion (MIGEPROF). The primary mandate of the CDPSC is to strengthen the synergy between the Government of Rwanda and its stakeholders, in the design and implementation of policies, strategies, and plans related to ECD, child rights, and child protection. Sub-cluster meetings provide all actors with insights into ongoing project implementation, allow for knowledge sharing and troubleshooting, reduce duplicative efforts, and encourage cooperation, transparency, and accountability. D4I participates in the CDPSC meetings to provide technical assistance to NCD and its partners in all its efforts of strengthening monitoring and evaluation processes at both the national and district levels. The CDPSC meetings are forums that enable the NCD to track progress on implementations of the various interventions as per the Operational Plan.Shortname: FS-24-654Author(s): Data for ImpactYear: 2024Language: EnglishRegion(s): RWANDAFiled under: Child health, child protection, Rwanda
