Read our latest report on what crisis and humanitarian funding cuts mean for children.
Our work is dedicated to improving the wellbeing of children affected by war. Drawing on 30 years’ experience, we reach children as quickly as possible when conflict breaks out, and we stay as long as we’re needed.
Being a first responder is about selflessly serving humanity, preserving people’s dignity, and giving them hope for a better tomorrow.
Developed together with children, expert partners and local communities, our evidence-based methodologies (EBMs) deliver support within key thematic areas:
Repairing and upholding child protection structures.
Improving psychological wellbeing.
Delivering quality education in resource-constrained settings.
