 Migrant and displaced children are amongst the most vulnerable in the world today facing this pandemic. Their lives are turned upside down as borders are closing, as travel restrictions are imposed, as families get separated or asylum is suspended. With many of the families dependent on daily wage labor or precarious jobs are simply washed and wiped away. We know from previous crises that in these times, child labor, child trafficking, sexual exploitation will be on the rise as protection services are disrupted and as pressures on the vulnerable families like migrant and displaced families is growing. These children also face even more stigma and discrimination, especially in times like these. It doesn't have to be like this, with the right policies, with COVID responses that are inclusive and sensitive to the specific needs of migrant and displaced children and families. We can protect them and we can protect ourselves.
