Integrated Child Protection Scheme
Dr. Ashok Kumar
Jt. Director
DIFFICULTIES FACED IN ESTABLISHING A PROTECTIVE ENVIRONMENT
Inadequate planning and coordination: Child Protection issues are dealt by different Government Agencies with focus areas other than children also e.g. child labour issues by Ministry of Labour & Employment, disabled persons by Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment
Inadequate implementation of existing laws and legislations: e.g. - JJ (Care and Protection of Children) 2000 amended in 2006 Negligible services relative to the needs: Resources for child protection are meagre and their utilisation is extremely uneven resulting in inadequate outreach = marginal coverage even of children in difficult circumstances
DIFFICULTIES (CONT) Poor infrastructure: • Structures mandated by legislation are inadequate – eg.
CWCs and JJBs • Lack of institutional infrastructure to deal with child
protection – lack of standards of care Inadequate Staff:• Lack of capacities and less in number than required
Inadequate data and documentation
Lack of Preventive measures - results in more children falling into difficult circumstances
Planning Commission – to merge all small schemes into and umbrella scheme
INTEGRATED CHILD PROTECTION SCHEME – (ICPS)
Objectives:Provide a safe and secure environment for
overall development of the children in need of care and protection and children in conflict with law
