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.

Empowering Girls and Young Women
We're training girls in the remote south-east region in vocational skills like basketry and agriculture so they can earn an independent living. Most never went to school, or had to drop out because of conflict or poverty. We're also providing them with grants so they can set up small businesses for themselves.

Helping children back into school
Most schools in the region lack even the most basic of facilities and equipment. We're providing some of them with basic teaching materials and giving the students the books and bags they need. We're also training teachers in child protection so they can learn to identify and help vulnerable students.

Helped street children in Bangui
We recently supported the only Drop-In Centre in the capital Bangui that serves the city's 3,000 street children. We provided food and health supplies to meet the children's basic needs, and helped get some of them back into formal education.
