Goal 2 Accelerated Action Country-Level Engagement The Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children will support governments that have demonstrated a strong commitment to accelerating efforts to make children safe and are focused on solutions. We term these countries Pathfinders. Pathfinders within the Partnership will receive technical support to execute a whole-of-government approach to violence prevention. This will involve development of a road map for implementation of the package of evidence-based solutions, and a national commitment to increased financing. A number of countries have already initiated steps toward being Pathfinders. These countries will commit to confront the many factors that leave children vulnerable to violence, and will help to build a global network of champions needed to make our societies safer for children. By pioneering new approaches to delivering on SDG16.2 and other violence related targets, countries will form alliances with all sectors of society to prevent violence against children. 10 - Country-Level Engagement
