Communities need more to survive than you think

Child-Friendly Spaces

We provide safe spaces for children to play, learn, seek help, and just be kids.

Catch-Up Learning

We help children who were forced to leave school to catch up on their education. Our teams develop condensed curriculums and train teachers in delivering these lessons.

Legal Aid for Women and Children

To protect their rights, our lawyers provide free legal representation to women and children who have survived violence and abuse.

Tools for Education

We give communities necessary supplies for education, like pencils, books, chairs, and handwashing facilities.

Rights Protection

We empower communities and local leaders to protect the rights of women and children through education and training.

Food and Farming Support

We support farming families so they can feed their communities. We provide supplies, including seeds and tools, and training, like livestock management and new farming techniques.

Peacebuilding

We teach conflict resolution to young people on both sides of a dispute so they can live and work peacefully.

New Business Support

We train and support young adults and women so that they can build local businesses and provide for their families.

Mental Health Support

We offer counselling to survivors of conflict to help them overcome trauma and build new lives.

We work with local communities to create environments where children can thrive

We adapted the national curriculum to a series of radio dramas to offer radio-based learning opportunities so that children no longer needed to make a potentially dangerous trek to formal schools but rather could learn where they lived with the guidance of specially trained teaching assistants.

More than 100 local actors have been trained on how to advocate for children. Our teams trained service providers to increase, physical, emotional, and mental health support services for children. More than 50 thousand community members have been sensitized to children's rights, gender, and inclusion.

For almost twenty years, War Child has been in West Darfur providing programs that reduce food aid dependency by creating sustainable, income-generating pathways for women and youth.

War Child’s activities in West Darfur were forced to pause following the outbreak of civil war in April 2023. We are hoping to resume operating in the country as soon as security conditions allow.
