Program Contribution for Fondation Terre des hommes 2023-2024


The program of the Terre des hommes Foundation (TdhF) aims to sustainably reduce child mortality and morbidity and to secure access to health, sanitation and clean water for mothers and children (0-18 years) in severe poverty. Children in contexts of migration, conflict and disasters, and child victims of violence are better protected. International standards in child-friendly justice are promoted. Humanitarian interventions in fragile contexts, combined with poverty reduction and sustainable development are promoted through innovative work with children and youths.

Contesto

A quarter of the global child population lives in fragile and/or conflict-affected contexts. Children and women are disproportionately affected. Conflicts, violent extremism, the proliferation of arms, mass displacements and the resulting erosion of the rule of law are on the rise. 

One in six children was living in a conflict zone in 2020. That amounts to approximately 452 million children – a 5% increase from 2019. Most of them suffer and many die from malnutrition, poor hygiene and insufficient access to healthcare. Most new-born and maternal deaths are due to easily preventable conditions or conditions that could be treated by access to simple and affordable interventions. 

Crises increase displacement and migration of people, including unaccompanied children, increasing children’s vulnerabilities due to family separation,  labour exploitation and child trafficking. In 2020, 36 million international migrants were under the age of 18. 

There is clear evidence that the situation of the children got worse due to the indirect impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, in 2021 as well. More children suffered from violence, malnutrition or lost their access to education and essential services.

Obiettivi New-borns, girls and boys, youths, and their families, among the most marginalized, access opportunities to survive and thrive to become healthy and active members of their communities and are supported by inclusive and accountable institutions.
