مستخلص: This article explores the pressing issues faced by children during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main goals involved in this endeavor are to minimize potential risks to the physical and mental well-being of children, ensure their access to necessities such as food, shelter, and education, and provide support and protection to those who are especially vulnerable, such as those living in low-income households or requiring additional assistance. Underprivileged populations have seen a disproportionate impact resulting from the accumulation of risks associated with COVID-19, hence emphasizing the urgent need to address these issues to alleviate additional instances of injustice. This study provides evidence that Pakistan's response to the unintended impacts of the COVID-19 epidemic on children's well-being needed to be more clear, despite worldwide efforts to reduce transmission. This underlined the significance of formulating and implementing a comprehensive policy aimed at safeguarding the safety and welfare of children amidst the ongoing pandemic. The research methodology employed in this study centered around the systematic observation and resolution of six prominent obstacles. The challenges encompassed in this context encompassed the improvement of the accessibility of safe water, sanitation, and hygiene, the mitigation of environmental degradation and climate change, the reduction of child poverty rates, the preservation of children's mental well-being, the expansion of educational opportunities for all children, and the guarantee of access to health and nutrition services. The main aim of this study was to support stakeholders and policymakers in formulating a policy framework that prioritizes the safety of children, especially those who are most vulnerable, both during and after the COVID-19 epidemic.
