She went on to note issues with schools being shutdown as they are ”a lifeline of opportunity as well as a shield offering protection - or at least a temporary reprieve - from violence, exploitation and other difficult circumstances, including sexual exploitation, forced marriage and child labour and domestic violence.... It will take an effort by the whole of our country to give children the protection and care they deserve.”
