Children's rights & advocacy

Working on children's rights

WHY?

Standing up for children and youth, raising awareness about children’s rights and encouraging children and youth to get involved and be heard. Children and families need strong actors that will advocate for them, and they need the opportunity to advocate for themselves.

SITUATION OVERVIEW

Around the world, the rights of children and youth are often not respected, and young people have little input on the issues and policies that affect them. Without adequate support and family-friendly policies, parents can struggle to stay strong and keep their family together, leaving their children at risk.

 

Children who have lost or are at risk of losing parental care, like the ones we serve at SOS, are particularly vulnerable to the worst children’s rights violations, including child labor, violence and sex trafficking.

Your philanthropy will help us in the care of orphaned children around the world.
