dc.description.abstractThe first report in this series, Missing Children in Central America: Research of Practices and Legislation on Prevention and Recovery, was published in collaboration with the UNICEF Latin America and Caribbean Office. It has been used by law enforcement and civil society organizations in Central America to develop and strengthen mechanisms related to missing children. As a result of the report, three countries invited ICMEC to train first responders on issues related to missing children, and one country created a unit within its police force specifically focused on missing and abducted children. In July 2016, the second report – with a focus on 10 countries in Southeast Asia – was published in the hopes of enhancing the region’s engagement in missing children’s issues. While this report does not focus on a particular region – but rather a comparative study of Belarus, Canada, Finland, Kazakhstan, Russia, and the United States – it is similar in scope and purpose to the previously cited reports. And the key takeaway remains the same: we have a global duty of care to help prevent child from going missing, find any child who has gone missing for any reason, and ensure that all children experience a safe childhood.en_US
