VAB Network

VAB Network, established in 2024, is an alliance of different organizations that work for child protection and child rights, with an aim to raise the issues of violence against boys and address the existing gaps in safeguarding the rights and well-being of boys. This network, in a joint effort, works to promote awareness about violence against boys and contribute to the overarching goal of ensuring child rights, child protection, and gender justice for all. Through this network, HDV has been celebrating Blue Umbrella Day and facilitating consultation meetings with boys to contribute to the Strategy Paper for this initiative.

HDV is the Secretariat of the VAB Network for two years.
