The information provided by this Mechanism helps with decision making and the adoption of measures at all levels, applied to the context of ongoing peace processes and the existing cooperation framework between the United Nations, national governments and other parties to the conflict41. Child protection advisers should have sufficient knowledge of the instruments used in the application of these measures, mainly the Action Plans with the parties to the conflict, established by Resolution 1539 (2004). An important reference point for their responsibilities can be seen in the experience gained in the deployment of missions, such as: • UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) • African Union/UN Hybrid Operation in Darfur (UNAMID) • UN Organisation Stabilisation Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO) • UN Stabilisation Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) • UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) • UN Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) • UN Operation in Côte d’Ivoire (ONUCI) groups who kill and maim children, commit sexual violence against children, and attack schools and hospitals. The MRM stops when all parties in a country situation have been de-listed and all violations against children have stopped. 41 This mechanism should work with the participation of national governments and the corresponding UN bodies, and national and international civil society. By cooperating wth each other, all mesures that are adopted should have the aim of supporting and complementing the actions for protection and rehbilitation that the national governments have assumed.
