Because of the lack of overall coordination, different sectors have created thematic coordination
mechanisms:
- The CIM and the CNS;
- The PNOEV (with financial support from PEPFAR, the World Bank and UNICEF) for
coordinating the Action for OVC because of HIV-AIDS;
- Thematic Group on Gender and Development (GTGD), coordinated by the Directorate of
Equality and Gender Promotion of the Ministry in charge of gender issues with technical
support from UNFPA, which is the body coordination for everything concerning gender-based
violence;
- The protection of the Child Forum, or "Child Protection Forum", which was created under the
coordination of the humanitarian response that includes international organizations such as
UNICEF, Save the Children, IRC, BICE. Local NGOs are represented through a representative
of the Forum of NGOs and associations for Care and Assistance to children in difficulty. The
Government is not represented, but invited depending on the themes addressed.
