Children and families are strong even in the most challenging places in the world
John, hello!
World Refugee Day on June 20 recognizes the strength and resilience of the
millions of children and families forced to flee their homes every year in
search of safety and, eventually, a new beginning.
Many of the world’s refugees live in the world’s most dangerous places—the
communities that World Vision calls fragile contexts. These are communities
facing war, economic instability and increasingly, climate-related disasters
like drought or flooding.
World Vision is committed to helping these courageous children and families not
just survive, but also thrive. Your donation helps these communities adapt to a
future that in many places will be marked by climate-related challenges.
The Childhood Rescue projects in Honduras, Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo accomplished the following using the Fragile Context Programme Approach*:
2,473 families received cash distributions to meet their immediate needs 12 handwashing stations were built, improving sanitation and helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19
4 water sources and 2 latrine blocks were built and rehabilitated to bring clean water and sanitation to children and families
32 savings groups for youth and adults were established, allowing members to gain financial skills, enhancing income-generating possibilities
90 faith leaders were trained in COVID-19 prevention and strengthening child protection services
26 leaders from different municipal and community spheres—including representatives of civil society, community-based organizations and local government—were engaged in working together for the wellbeing of children

The world will continue to see more and more children and their families leaving their homes and communities for climate-related reasons. >> [link removed]
Climate change is producing climate migrants. People who are already living on the edge of survival are being forced to flee drought, famine, floods and harmful weather patterns like severe storms that destroy homes, businesses and farmlands.
The UN reports that since 2008, an annual average of 21.5 million people have been forced to leave their homes and communities because of weather events.
Read the moving story of how climate change is impacting children and families, like 28-year-old mother Fadumo Musa Salat who currently lives in a camp for displaced people.

Sudan Crisis Update >> [link removed]
Violence in Sudan has continued to escalate since armed clashes broke out in April.Before the conflict began, almost 16 million people—about one-third of the country's population—were already dependent on humanitarian agencies such as World Vision for support and survival.
Consequences from the violence have been devastating as girls, boys, women and men remain sheltering in their homes, fearing they will run out of food and water.
Read a full update on the situation and how it's affecting children and families in Sudan.
