We empower children living with armed conflict
Our Programs
Programs defined by the communities we serve
Programs defined by the communities we serve
Conflict throws everyday life into chaos
We help children and families recover by providing them with access to education, protection from abuse, and safe spaces.
Instability threatens a child's future
We minimize the long-term losses children suffer in war and conflict by offering safe and consistent access to education. We help families escape poverty and provide legal support for survivors of sexual violence and abuse.
99% of our staff are local
Local people understand a community’s culture, history, and needs, which is why we work with community members and leaders to understand the issues they face and implement the most effective solutions.
We ensure that children are at the centre of all humanitarian responses
It is our responsibility to highlight the experiences of children living with war and conflict, and to insist that the world responds to their needs.
We don't work alone
We work with many partner agencies to implement the highest quality programs, including UN agencies, other local and international non-governmental organizations, and government providers of foreign aid.
Communities need more to survive than you think
Child-Friendly Spaces
We provide safe spaces for children to play, learn, seek help, and just be kids.
Catch-Up Learning
We help children who were forced to leave school to catch up on their education. Our teams develop condensed curriculums and train teachers in delivering these lessons.
Legal Aid for Women and Children
To protect their rights, our lawyers provide free legal representation to women and children who have survived violence and abuse.
Tools for Education
We give communities necessary supplies for education, like pencils, books, chairs, and handwashing facilities.
Rights Protection
We empower communities and local leaders to protect the rights of women and children through education and training.
Food and Farming Support
We support farming families so they can feed their communities. We provide supplies, including seeds and tools, and training, like livestock management and new farming techniques.
Peacebuilding
We teach conflict resolution to young people on both sides of a dispute so they can live and work peacefully.
New Business Support
We train and support young adults and women so that they can build local businesses and provide for their families.
Mental Health Support
We offer counselling to survivors of conflict to help them overcome trauma and build new lives.
We work with local communities to create environments where children can thrive

We create safe spaces for children to receive early childhood development classes and informal education.
Multicultural youth centres provide spaces for women and youth to come together in community, learn life skills, receive psychosocial counselling, and cultivate hope for a brighter future.
We innovate to make education more accessible and train communities on children's rights, gender and inclusion.
We adapted the national curriculum to a series of radio dramas to offer radio-based learning opportunities (IRI) so that children no longer needed to make a potentially dangerous trek to formal schools but rather could learn where they lived with the guidance of specially trained teaching assistants.
Local actors have been supported on ways to advocate for children. Our teams train teachers about rights of the child, protection and psychosocial support, and the IRI curriculum. We train school management committees about business management and provide business coaching and mentorship in order to operate in a sustainable way.
We train women and girls in food production and provide young people with education and skills training.
We provide agricultural and business training to women and girls so they can become leaders in food production and marketing.
Our catch-up learning classes make it possible for displaced children to get back to school.
We support peacebuilding efforts by bringing young people together to learn how to resolve their differences.
We help young people start their own small businesses by teaching them market-based skills and providing start-up funding.
For almost twenty years, War Child has been in West Darfur providing programs that reduce food aid dependency by creating sustainable, income-generating pathways for women and youth.
War Child’s activities in West Darfur were forced to pause following the outbreak of civil war in April 2023. We are hoping to resume operating in the country as soon as security conditions allow.
We provide catch-up education for refugee children and legal representation to survivors of sexual violence.
Our catch-up learning programs make it possible for refugee children to return to the classroom.
We worked with the Ugandan Ministry of Education to develop the country’s first-ever accelerated curriculum for secondary schools, which is being adopted nationwide.
We are a registered law firm providing free legal counselling, mobile legal clinics, and representation to those who have survived sexual violence and abuse.
We work to educate community members on the rights of women and children and the importance of protecting those rights.

We facilitate teacher and community leader trainings, awareness campaigns, and child-led activities to prevent and respond to child protection issues and promote children’s rights.
We are rehabilitating schools – improving water and sanitation facilities and providing school supplies and learning materials to create safe spaces for children to learn.
