World Vision’s UNGA panel champions equity in education—transforming systems to reach marginalized children with inclusive, resilient learning.

Climate change is not an equal-opportunity crisis. It magnifying inequalities that keep families trapped in poverty.

Joseph and Ephrasie, a couple from Nyamasheke near Nyungwe National Park in Rwanda, have transformed their lives from extreme poverty to stability and hope. After years of hardship, eating once a day and working on others’ farms, they received support from World Vision through the Hinduka Wigire (Ultra-Poor Graduation) program. This included mindset training and a $95 start-up capital. Joseph took the training seriously, stopped tending others’ cows, and began raising his own. Their lives improved significantly: they now earn about $110 monthly from milk and organic fertilizer, can feed their children well, and support their education and health. Their marriage also grew stronger, and they now live with mutual respect, love, and shared Christian values.

In the war-torn east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, thousands of children have been orphaned by ongoing massacres and left vulnerable to trauma and despair. Through faith-based initiatives like the Let the Children Come program, local heroes like Hélène offer shelter, psychosocial support, and Bible study groups that help heal deep emotional wounds. Stories like Isaac’s, who regained his voice after years of silence, show how hope and resilience are being rebuilt, even as the urgent needs of countless others remain.
