Empowering vulnerable children in East Asia to experience the fullness of life

Present in East Asia for more than seven decades, since our founding in 1950, World Vision has been implementing evidence-based and multi-sector programmes tailored to the specific needs and priorities of local communities. We focus on helping vulnerable girls and boys affected by climate change, migration and the consequent food insecurity while investing in helping communities become stronger and more resilient to shocks and crises. 

The negative climate and socio-economic trends observed in recent years, however, have been intensifying the struggles of impoverished families to meet their fundamental needs, or even to ensure their very survival.

More action is needed from us than ever, and we have no time to waste. 

 

Our Impact

and their families were positively impacted through comprehensive programmes.

1,022,462 people

were assisted to improve food security through sustainable natural resource management and climate-resilient agricultural practices.

976,955 people

including 319,314 children were supported with dignified relief assistance and post-disaster recovery and rehabilitation.

206 policy changes

contributed to improving the enabling environment for over 34 million children.

affected by migration were supported through programmes that ensure they are safe, protected and well cared for.

Leveraging our expertise and experience gained throughout seven decades, we deepen our commitment to serving the most vulnerable girls and boys through a greater focus on building community resilience to climate change, addressing the impacts of migration and displacement on children, and working with partners, communities and children themselves to influence policy and systems-level changes.

We stand ready to demonstrate leadership and take decisive action to achieve the following results for the children we serve:
