The UN child agency, UNICEF is working with the South African Department of Social Development to address the situation of children in the country at this critical time. The COVID-19 lockdown has made children more vulnerable to abuse, neglect, and psychosocial distress. In addition, school closures and restrictions on movement has disrupted children's routines, while also placing additional responsibilities on parents and caregivers. On Friday 05 June, Channel Africa's Teddy Sibiya spoke to UNICEF South Africa's Chief of Child Protection and Social Policy, Mayke Huijbregts about efforts to assist children.
