UNICEF Recommended Actions for Responding to Adolescents Priorities During the COVID-19 Crisis

UNICEF Recommended Actions for Responding to Adolescents Priorities During the COVID-19 Crisis

The purpose of this document is to provide country offices with a tool/checklist that they can use when assessing, planning and implementing their interventions that address adolescent priorities and needs in the COVID-19 crisis. This document aligns with and follows the PD Guidance Note on Programming Approaches and Priorities to COVID-19’s structure, objectives and recommended actions. It consolidates UNICEF’s adolescent-specific responses to the COVID-19 crisis from across the guidance that was developed by sectors. While this document reflects the recommended actions by sectors, it also benefited from additional contextualization to the adolescent age group and their specific challenges, priorities and needs. This document will remain a living document to reflect the latest available guidance. We recommend to also consult the inter-agency Guidance developed by the Compact for Young People in Humanitarian Action on COVID-19 and the EMOPS COVID-19 Info Platform.
