About
We are a leading specialist non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting children affected by conflict, to ensure that war does not define their futures.
We are War Child
For more than 30 years, we’ve supported millions of children affected by conflict.
We work with partners to provide evidence-based support that is proven to work, when and where children and their families need it most.
Our aim is simple: to keep children safe, help them heal and learn, and give them the chance to build a better future.
Our priorities for 2026
In 2026, we are focused on putting our new strategy into action. We will strengthen existing partnerships, build new ones, reach more children with our evidence-based methodologies, and expand our presence and influence across the humanitarian sector.
