Our mission

Our purpose is to ensure a safe and protected future for children who are or are at risk of being separated from their family and community. We empower children, their families, communities, and authorities to create opportunities for a better life.

Our vision

A world where every child enjoys the right to childhood in a safe and caring family, protected from poverty, violence, and exploitation.

We ensure

that children's voices are heard, by helping them express their opinions, take part in decisions that affect their lives, and work with their family and community to find sustainable solutions to their problems.

We reunite families

by helping children return home,and when this is not possible, we make sure that the alternative care options offered to these children are family-based.

We make

our actions more efficient by being open to learning from experience and accepting innovations, so that the changes we propose are shared by communities and authorities and produce positive, long-term changes in children's lives.

We offer

children the chance to grow up in caring families and communities strengthening the family and preventing the separation of children from their parents.

We protect children

from abuse, neglect, and exploitation both in their families and in alternative care.

We communicate

for development to change the way society understands and reacts to children's problems for durable and efficient solutions. Through communication, community mobilization, and advocacy, we promote positive attitudes and encourage the state, families, and communities to take responsibility.
