Quick overview
- 60,000 Lebanese children are out of school
- In Southern Lebanon many schools have become shelters
- 3000 children from WV supported villages are displaced
- Psychosocial support for children and their caregivers is a top priority
In dangerous and complex places across the world, we prioritise the survival, safety and futures of children.
As humanitarian organisation go, we're big and we've been committed to this for a long time. That means we go to the places others can not.
In places such as Southern Lebanon, children and families are experiencing extreme instability, they've been living in a state of upheaval for close to 10 months and the uncertainty increases daily.
Helping children survive is our priority. Practically that may look like...
Food
Water
Hygiene kits
Medicine
Mattresses
Cooking utensils
However, to ensure a child can not only survive but also recover we focus on children's mental health, well being by providing psychosocial support through play, counseling, appropriate trauma processing activities etc.
We exist so that children living in the world's most dangerous and complex places can survive, recover and build a future.
