On this World Elephant Day, WWF is launching the Asian Elephant Alliance (AEA) to secure a future in which loss of elephant habitats is reduced, people and elephants live side by side in a sustainable way, and wild elephant populations are stable. The Alliance calls for partnership and action with other organisations as it acknowledges that the challenges faced by the elephants in the region cannot be solved in isolation. Improved research, monitoring, protection and management are the key focused areas of AEA. Elephants are globally endangered, particularly threatened in Southeast Asia and China, with only about 8,000 - 11,000 wild Asian elephants spread across eight countries - Cambodia, southern China, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Viet Nam. Out of those nations, Viet Nam has the fewest wild elephants left, with an estimated population of just over 100 nationwide. In Viet Nam, WWF will bring in resources to achieve three missions of the AEA: Securing Elephant Habitats, which focuses on protecting, managing and restoring elephant habitats; Living with Elephants, which aims manage human-elephant conflict in a friendly manner for human-elephant coexistence; and Restoring Elephant Populations, which looks to bring elephant populations in the country up to stable levels through enhancing protection efforts and improving wildlife management.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Prevention and responding to violence against children is an important aspect of UNICEF’s work to strengthen Viet Nam’s child protection system. Through playing leading roles in legal reforms and child protection system development, UNICEF is making key contributions to address all forms of violence against children in daily settings - such as schools, homes and communities - and across the education, health and welfare sectors. A key area of UNICEF’s work to eliminate all forms of violence against children is building on the new Child Law that came into effect in 2017. This ground-breaking law spells out the responsibility of the government to use resources for children at risk and introduces for the first time an approach that takes aim at preventing violence against children before it happens and responding to violence when it happens. UNICEF is working with the government and provincial authorities to build a child protection system that responds to the multiple causes and forms of violence. Strengthening the capacity and responsibilities of parents and families to end violent discipline in the home is a crucial UNICEF focus and involves development of parenting education and delivery of social care services to support families to deal with factors that lead to violence against children. Parents and families are
also being supported to offer the protection from violence to help children to make a safe transition to kindergarten and primary school.
