The research captures children's voices during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting their experiences, concerns, and recommendations at both global and local levels. Conducted as a pulse survey, the study aimed to understand children’s views on COVID-19, their access to justice systems, and the challenges they faced during this period. The findings support ChildFund’s response across four key areas: preventing the spread of COVID-19 among children and families, ensuring access to adequate food, protecting children from physical and emotional violence, and promoting continued learning despite disruptions.
