In 2016, we began advocating for a change to the child protection system together with local partners. In 2022, we led a government delegation to witness the ongoing transformation of India’s child protection system — an opportunity that catalyzed the national government of Sri Lanka to help every child thrive in a family. Today, we have a national impact through the training of government workers, creating child protection frameworks, and providing expert guidance to organizations across the island country of 22 million people.
