South Sudan Diagnostic Exercise

Findings present best practices, challenges and gaps that remain

About

Safe to Learn’s Call to Action benchmarks were developed based on international child rights frameworks, UN tools and minimum standards, and best practice from the field of child safeguarding. For each benchmark, there are national, state and school-level ‘checkpoints’ or requirements that governments and the education sector should meet in order to ensure that schools are safe and protective. These benchmarks have formed the basis for a Diagnostic Tool which aims to measure the degree to which governments are meeting these standards.

This Diagnostic Tool has been used to conduct diagnostic exercises in five focal countries to gauge governments’ compliance, identify best practices, gaps and priorities, and establish a baseline for tracking countries’ progress.

This report presents the results of the diagnostic exercise conducted in South Sudan between November 2019 and March 2020.
