The Collaborative on Global Children’s Issues is working to bring together research and cross-sector coordination to respond to child–family separation linked to recent U.S. immigration enforcement and to support reunification efforts.
In the face of radical changes to U.S. foreign assistance, there is a pressing need for timely analysis, information sharing, community building, and strategic engagement among partners.
Religious belief systems and practices have justified or opposed the separation of children from families in a variety of historical and regional contexts.

The Innovating Protection for Children on the Move Across the Americas forum brought a child-focused and solutions-oriented lens to the dynamic landscape of migration.
