Full Description
A media analysis for the Alliance for the Protection of Children project, tracking what Haitian radio broadcasts and social media actually say about violence against children and who shapes that discourse. Most child protection reporting measures incidence; this measures the public conversation around it, which is what awareness campaigns are aimed at and rarely tested against.
