For Children, For Change, For Life
Conflict breeds hunger.
60% of the world's hungry are living in places affected by war and violence.
Four out of every five children whose growth has been stunted due to malnutrition live in these places.
Uprooting families, ruining agricultural lands, and disrupting economies, conflict is devastating the lives of children.
Don’t forget Afghan children who are fighting for survival
“Afghanistan’s crisis has gotten worse since the start of the conflict in Ukraine.
Attention has turned away, and the country has rapidly slipped into one of the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
Failure to act immediately will have grave consequences. We’re already seeing families selling their children or marrying them off.
Many more children will suffer and die if Afghanistan is forgotten.
We need to act now, release frozen funds, and agree to fund long-term development. Time is running out."
- Asuntha Charles, National Director, World Vision Afghanistan
More than 5 million Afghan children are just one step away from famine.

The political and security upheaval in Afghanistan is a living nightmare for its civilians. Countless more vulnerable children will pay the ultimate price as they are caught in the maelstrom.
Since 2012, the Rakhine state has been shaken by the ongoing conflict. Prone to natural disasters and coupled with poor basic infrastructure, movement restrictions, and limited trade opportunities, the population lives precariously. Now with the military coup, the situation is dire and the people are in urgent need.
The siege of Marawi on 23 May 2017 caused widespread destruction and displacement of people. Thousands remain displaced to this day, as repair and reconstruction works have been disrupted by COVID-19. Children have borne the brunt of this conflict.

But survival is just the first step.
RECOVER
We help families adapt and build their resilience to shocks by supporting rehabilitation, recovery from psychosocial effects of violence or upheaval, enabling access to basic services.
BUILD A FUTURE
And we help them build a future by advocating for lasting peace, by building bridges where there are divisions, and by addressing root causes of deep poverty and exclusion
Keep children free from fear.
