War Child's mission is to support and strengthen the protective environment for children who, as a result of conflict, live with a combination of insecurity, poverty and exclusion.

We are an international charity that protects children living in the world's most dangerous war zones. We currently work in Iraq, Afghanistan, Uganda and D.R. Congo. We look forward to a world in which the lives of children are no longer torn apart by war. War Child has been working with children affected by war for almost 15 years. Our focus is on the children who are most severely marginalised by the overlapping forces of conflict, poverty and social exclusion - children living and working on the streets, child soldiers and children in prison. We work where we believe the need is greatest and where our experience and skills will be of most value.
