Company Description
War Child launched its first project in Afghanistan in the city of Herat, supporting families who had been internally displaced and were struggling to afford food and make a living. In the years that have followed, we have expanded our projects to protect, educate and find opportunities for vulnerable children and their families- as well as speak out on broader issues like gender discrimination.
War Child, the specialist charity for children affected by conflict. For more than two decades we’ve delivering high-impact programmes that are rebuilding lives across Afghanistan, Iraq, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Central African Republic and Yemen. We understand children’s needs, respect their rights, and put them at the centre of the solution – from reintegrating children formerly associated with armed groups and armed forces (CAAFAG) in the Central African Republic to reuniting children with their families in Afghanistan. We look forward to a world in which the lives of children are no longer torn apart by war. This is a vision that can only be realised through the collective actions of children themselves, communities and their leaders, organisations like War Child, governments and key decision makers.
