World Vision in Angola programmes are focused on four main pillars: Health and Nutrition, Water and Sanitation, Resilience and Livelihoods and Emergencies. The programme portfolio comprises of grant funded and private non-sponsorship funded projects. There is no direct child sponsorship programme administered.

· Training families and communities in agricultural improvement techniques and increase access to safe water;

· Raising awareness of families and communities in malaria prevention and working with Governments and partners to combat malaria, diarrhea, pneumonia and other preventable diseases;

· Improving the health of children and mothers in rural communities through health care and nutrition education;

· Supporting groups of women to develop and access income through projects of economic development and entrepreneurship;

· Strengthening organizations of Angolan civil society to exercise their role of social control;

· Acting in emergency situations especially those that victimize children and adolescents.
