The Family Promotion and Protection programme is mandated to strategize and further the objectives of this thematic area. The family is the natural and fundamental unit of society and the necessary basis of social order, and deserves protection by the state. However, in many countries, this is not the case. The family has gone under onslaughts from both internal and external sources with individual members being affected.
