Agyeman‑Rawlings calls for stronger child protection in armed conflict

‎“This Working Group presents the opportunity for Ghana to internalise the Vancouver Principles by creating a sustained, institutionalised mechanism, anchored on the national peace and security architecture, that links community‑level early warning signals directly to national policy and strategic action,” he said.‎Dr George Amoh, Executive Secretary, NPC, said the implementation of the Vancouver Principles presented Ghana with an opportunity to institutionalise child protection within its national peace and security architecture.‎Dr Agyeman‑Rawlings made the call at the opening of a two‑day inaugural meeting of the Multi‑Stakeholder Working Group on the implementation of the Vancouver Principles in Ghana, organised by the National Peace Council (NPC) and the Dallaire Institute, in Accra on Thursday.
