Through our healthcare and childhood projects, we work to protect, care for, and support the holistic development of children, especially in contexts of emergency and vulnerability.
Children are the most affected by the consequences of an emergency, facing psychological trauma, malnutrition, lack of access to clean water, and inadequate living conditions. These factors have a deep impact on their physical, emotional, and educational development.
After a natural disaster, it is common for educational and healthcare infrastructures to be destroyed, interrupting their schooling and leaving families without access to basic services. But child vulnerability is not limited to emergency situations—in many regions, young children live in a constant state of hardship, facing shortages of food, medical care, and a safe environment in which to grow up.
In addition, pregnant women and newborns face major challenges, such as the lack of adequate care during childbirth or in the first months of life, due to a lack of resources and trained personnel in their communities.
Children from 0 to 16 years old, pregnant women, and newborns who receive medical care and emotional support.
Entire communities, as the well-being of children guarantees a more hopeful and sustainable future for the regions in which we operate.
