TOGETHER, WE’VE
reduced the global under-five mortality rate by more than half since 2000.
Violence against children happens in the places they should be most protected – their homes, schools and communities – and at the hands of people they trust. We work in over 150 countries to strengthen the safety nets that keep children from falling into harm’s way, especially when an emergency strikes.
We partners with governments and community advocates to connect the most vulnerable children to various forms of protection – from vital social services and frontline support, to fair justice systems. Explore our work across these key areas:
Children experience insidious forms of violence and exploitation in every part of the world. Torn from their families and homes due to conflict, disaster and trafficking. Forced into fields, mines and streets to labour under dangerous conditions.
Recruited by armed groups. Subjected to gender-based violence.
We works day in, day out, to keep children safe from abuse and provide care to those who have suffered.
