This report synthesizes learning on community-led child protection in Sierra Leone, Kenya, and India. It shows the power of communities' own agency and action on behalf of children and underscores the importance of ownership. Written for an audience of mostly practitioners, it features case studies rather than full research reports, and it draws out practical lessons learned and offers recommendations for practitioners, donors, and policy leaders. Based on lessons learned from the communities, it offers an enriched framework for thinking about and supporting community ownership. It also tries to situate the work amidst the broader currents of power shifting, localization, and reconfiguring the humanitarian and development systems.
