Bandarlampung (ANTARA) - Indonesia's National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) is developing a roadmap to provide targeted care for neglected and vulnerable children, an official said on Thursday.

“These include children born from non-marital relationships, those abandoned or placed in orphanages,” he said.
Children impacted by domestic violence, parental divorce, or living on the streets will also be covered.
