The Child Protection Working Group (CPWG) and CPC Learning Network co-hosted this three-day conference at the International Conference Center in Geneva, Switzerland. The 
purpose 
of 
this 
meeting 
was
 to 
improve 
the 
care 
and 
protection 
of 
children
 in
 crisis‐affected
 countries 
by 
bringing 
together
 practitioners
 and
 researchers 
to: 1) 
engage 
the
 global 
child 
protection
 community 
around
 new
 learning 
involving 
child 
protection 
practice;
 2) increase 
understanding
 of
different 
methodologies
 that 
can 
be 
used 
to
 strengthen 
program
 practice;
 and 3) 
reflect 
on 
the
 needs 
for 
evidence 
in
 the 
sector
 that
 can 
inform
 the 
wider 
CPWG
 learning 
agenda.
