The weak coordination and overlapping responsibilities between child protection service providers, and between the child protection and other social sectors, means that opportunities are lost in providing children with a continuum of prevention and care and protection responses, including during natural disasters and other emergencies. This problem has been further exacerbated by the fact that the majority of child protection interventions has focused on short-term responses, and are response oriented, which are primarily organized around specific issues related to children in specific situations such as: street-based children, trafficked children and children in conflict with the law.
