Illiteracy remains one of the biggest challenges facing rural Zambia, especially in communities like World Vision Zambia’s Luswepo Area Programme in Isoka district. Many children grow up without the necessary skills to read and write, limiting their opportunities for a better future. In these areas, lack of access to quality educational resources and awareness often leaves parents unaware of how they can support their children's learning at home. This cycle of illiteracy hampers community development and perpetuates poverty.

What happens when a mother can’t reach a doctor—and her children are sick in her arms? In remote villages of Herat Province, Afghanistan, families are still struggling in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquakes. Homes were destroyed, roads cut off, and access to essential healthcare vanished. “Most people developed psychological problems after the earthquake. The children were very weak,” says Abdullah, a community elder. To reach those left behind, World Vision—supported by World Vision Korea and World Vision Taiwan—is operating mobile health and nutrition teams. These teams travel to earthquake-affected areas where no clinics exist, providing outpatient care, safe deliveries, immunisations, nutrition support, and psychosocial services. This is the reality on the ground. And this is how mobile teams are saving lives—one remote village at a time. Watch the full story from rural Herat.
