World Vision Eswatini Launches National Strategy 2026–2030 — Eswatini That Cares. Children Who Thrive.
On 19 March 2026, World Vision Eswatini launched its National Strategy 2026–2030 — Eswatini That Cares. Children Who Thrive — before the Prime Minister, the United Nations Resident Coordinator, and a room full of partners committed to the future of Eswatini's children. A US$68 million plan. 395,000 vulnerable children. And a child ambassador who said it better than anyone else in the room.
World Vision Eswatini — National Strategy 2026–2030
From 2026 to 2030, World Vision Eswatini is committed to empowering 395,000 of the Kingdom's most vulnerable children with the conditions they need to grow up safer, healthier and more resilient. Building on over three decades of service in Eswatini and a previous strategy period that reached more than 357,000 children across 29 constituencies, our new strategy deepens our partnerships with Government and civil society — and focuses resources where they are needed most.
World Vision Eswatini — WASH Business Plan 2026–2030 Mapping the Blue Thread
Water is the blue thread of integration — connecting people, places, and progress. It is essential to the wellbeing of children and their communities, and creates pathways out of poverty. World Vision Eswatini's WASH Business Plan 2026–2030 is our bold, data-driven commitment to delivering safe, sustainable water, sanitation and hygiene services to every community where we work — across 14 programme areas in the Kingdom of Eswatini.
How Facilitating Engagements With Adolescent Girls and Young Women Positively Impacted Bongimpilo's Own Life
Bongimpilo, of Mantambe Area Programme, has been part of the “Halting The Spread Of HIV Amongst The Swazi Society” Project, which aims to transform the lives of young girls and women in underprivileged communities, since 2022. As Bongimpilo continued to work on the project, she found solace in knowing that she wasn't alone in her journey. She connected with other team members who shared similar experiences, forming a support network that helped her navigate her own challenges. Together, they shared stories, offered encouragement, and provided a safe space for vulnerability.

Eswatini
World Vision Eswatini
World Vision, an international Christian relief, development, and advocacy organisation, started operating in Eswatini in 1992 as an emergency relief organisation, before transitioning to transformational development and advocacy for the most vulnerable children, people and communities.
Eswatini continues to face development challenges that impose negative effects on the well-being of children. These include high levels of inequality and poverty, high unemployment rates, especially amongst the youth; high incidence and prevalence of communicable diseases (HIV and TB); high maternal mortality; high levels of chronic malnutrition; poor access to safe water; poor sanitation and hygiene; high incidence of violence, particularly gender-based violence against children (VAC) and women; high teenage pregnancy; and limited capacity to adapt to climate change.
WVE supports broader governmental initiatives targeted at these challenges, particularly where the most vulnerable children are impacted. The organisation works with existing community structures to ensure sustainability. WVE also works very closely with the communities served, including children, parents and caregivers, partners, faith leaders, government departments, parastatals, international agencies, and civil society. The active participation of children in the designing, delivering and reviewing of programmes is highly emphasised.

Access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene gives children and their families a chance to flourish. We believe every child deserves – and has the right – to use safe water and live in a clean environment.
Our Technical End-of-Programme Evaluation showed remarkable progress in access to potable water, which had improved from 3.9% when World Vision first arrived, to 100% in 2023. This was achieved through the Mpolonjeni Water Project, which provides safe water to 10 communities with 3,320 households.
