From a colleague in Darfur, Sudan, where the IRC has set up special “child-friendly spaces” in camps for families fleeing the ongoing violence in the province:

"There is still a need to get more girls involved in activities at centers, particularly adolescent girls. Creating a safe space in which they can do activities, learn, and just bond with other girls their own age is essential. Teachers play an important role in this process."
