Officers have been trained and sensitized on the best practices of handling victims of sexual offences. In addition, all police stations are equipped with special children and women desks. Police training has also been supplemented by support from other non-State actors which include the United Nationals Childrenâs Fund (UNICEF), the African Network for the Prevention and Protection Against Child Abuse and Neglect (ANPPCAN), Childrenâs Legal Action Network (CLAN), Save the Children - Sweden, Girl Child Network, Save the Children - UK, Save the Children - Finland among others. These organizations have been training police officers on issues pertaining to the rights of the child and child abuse through numerous seminars and workshops that have been held locally and abroad."
