Контрольный список входит в состав инструментария, разработанного МОМ в качестве технического руководства по практическому применению Руководящих положений Инициативы МИСИК, включая руководящее положение 13: Переселение и при необходимости эвакуация мигрантов. Это свод не имеющих обязательной силы рекомендуемых действий, направленных на то, чтобы потребности детей-мигрантов в особой защите были учтены в ходе гуманитарной эвакуации. С помощью этого функционального инструмента государства и международные организации смогут соблюсти принципы защиты детей (ЗД) при организации гуманитарной эвакуации, учитывая индивидуальные условия уязвимости детеймигрантов и обеспечивая их потребности до, во время и после эвакуации. Подразумевается, что рекомендуемые действия будут в полной мере внедрены в операции по всеобщей эвакуации; они не предполагают организации отдельного процесса эвакуации детей.
