The Ministry of Gender and Development, with support from the Child Protection Network and UNICEF has begun the reactivation and establishment of informal community child protection systems known as Child Welfare Committees (CWCs) across the country. In the meantime, we have reactivated 100 CWCs in each of these seven counties (Bomi, Gbarpolu, Grand Cape Mount County, Montserrado, River Gee,Maryland and Grand Kru). A committee is composed of 9 to 10 members and headed by a chairperson.The functions of community or town Child Welfare Committee are limited to advice, mediation, recommendation and representation. The overall function of a CWC is to advance the realization of the rights of the child at the county level.
