Every child deserves a safe, joyful childhood. But we all know that's not possible for every child in the world. That's why we continue to work with governments, faith leaders and communities to help create safe environments where children can live, learn, and play free from abuse, exploitation, child marriage, and child labour. By improving laws, strengthening child protection systems, and challenging harmful attitudes, we address the root causes of violence and help children be safe, heard and protected.
