Child-Friendly Spaces
When emergencies strike, children are most at risk of exploitation and abuse. Access to a Child-Friendly Space, where they can feel safe, secure and can enjoy childhood activities to regain a sense of regularity, is essential for their health and development.
Ending child marriage
We're working to end child marriage. We're partnering with communities to tackle the root causes of poverty that drive child marriage and breaking down ingrained beliefs and unequal systems that force girls into early marriage.
Preventing exploitation
We're combating some of the most destructive and evil violations of children's rights. We work with communities to prevent all forms of violence, abuse and exploitation against children, such as human trafficking, slavery, child marriage and child labour.
You'll also help children in other places if emergencies arise and be there right when you're needed the most.

Empowering children
We empower children with the skills and knowledge to protect themselves and each other. We teach children about their rights, how to keep themselves safe, and how to make their communities and schools safer for all, especially the most vulnerable.
Strengthening families
We strengthen families and caregivers to be the first line of protection and care for children. We support parents and caregivers through social support networks, economic and social assistance and equipping them with positive parenting skills.
Mobilising communities
We help communities build a safety net of people to protect children, prevent harm, and ensure those who are harmed receive help they need to recover. Our programmes work to strengthen the laws, norms and circles of care that keep children safe.
