Dohuk - Child labour rapid assessment
Iraq Child Labour Task Force
Highlights
Following an observed increase of child labour cases by child protection (CP) partners in Dohuk Governorate, UNICEF jointly with DoLSA formed a Child Labour Task Force (CLTF) to address this phenomenon. In one of the first meeting of the CLTF it was decided to conduct a rapid assessment at the level of Dohuk Governorate to assess the scope and forms of child labour.
In July 2015, DoLSA together with Save the Children International (SCI), International Rescue Committee (IRC) and local NGO Harikar conducted a one-day rapid assessment in the following districts of Dohuk Governorate: Duhok, Zakho and Sumel. These three districts were selected due to its economic prosperity, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and refugees residing in these areas and the number of street involved children.
