HOW WAR CHILD AUSTRALIA HAVE HELPED
AFGHANISTAN
War Child has been in Afghanistan since 2002. We work with community groups and families to help find and protect unaccompanied minors, children working on the streets or young people in conflict with the law. We provide counselling and educational support and speak up for children’s rights.
BURUNDI
War Child works on rebuilding social structures inside Burundi. We have worked in partnership with national NGOs inside Burundi since 2008 and established our own operations there in 2011.We identify and support at-risk children by strengthening the capacity of community-based structures concerning child protection.
CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC
War Child is building up community-based skills and support networks to identify and take care of children who are or have been at risk of exploitation.
DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO
We work with authorities and communities in the DRC to put child protection laws into effect and prevent violence against children. This includes running a free helpline to provide rapid support to children at risk and making sure their rights are respected by law enforcers.
IRAQ
A lot of our work in Iraq is done in partnership with local or national NGOs, and includes humanitarian aid, child protection, education support and trauma counselling. We make sure individual children get the help they need, even in hard-to-reach areas.
OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
We work with local professional organisations, community groups and families inside the occupied Palestinian territory to protect children from harm and support their psychosocial wellbeing.
SYRIA RESPONSE
War Child has been in Jordan since 2013, working in camps with Syrian refugees and in host communities with local populations. Our projects focus mainly on education, child protection and children’s rights..
UGANDA
We work with local partners to protect and counsel vulnerable Sudanese refugee children in Uganda. We also support a youth-led social enterprise venture that helps young people in northern Uganda improve their prospects by starting their own businesses.
YEMEN
We’re the first international NGO to register in Yemen since the war started. Our team is on the ground getting emergency food to the most vulnerable children.
