We are not delivering the many commitments and policies developed to tackle violence against children.

This was the sentiment shared by the United Nations special representative of the secretary-general on Ending Violence Against Children, Dr Najat Maalla M’jid.

Dr Najat is in Fiji meeting key stakeholders to discuss the way forward on how violence against children could be minimised in the Pacific.
