On February 6th, 2023 magnitude 7.7 and 7.6 earthquakes struck Türkiye, with 83 aftershocks, impacting 11 cities. Türk Kızılay / Turkish Red Crescent launched a Cash for Protection programme in November 2023 in 6 of the most earthquake affected provinces. The aim was to alleviate economic difficulties, mitigate possible protection risks, and prevent adverse negative coping strategies like child marriage and child labour. Among the groups accessing the Cash for Protection programme are separated children and their caregivers who require cash for protection to overcome the financial barriers for their legal processes or to empower their family support systems.
