Our dedicated staff share how education, play, and peacebuilding in the Road to Resilience Project has empowered children in Azraq Camp, Jordan.

Through the Sustainable Livelihood Enhancement Project, World Vision Sierra Leone is empowering 100 farming households in Pujehun District by handing over livestock. This initiative aims to boost food security, strengthen livelihoods and support “Feed Salone” programme.

An uncomfortable truth: without placing children at the heart of resilience strategies, we are merely managing decline rather than building the future.

This article highlights how World Vision DRC’s support to the Mapendo association in Sambwa (Haut-Katanga province) has strengthened community resilience through dry-season vegetable farming. Faced with shorter rainy seasons and limited access to inputs, local farmers received fertilisers, seeds, and technical training that enabled them to set up an experimental collective field. By adopting improved techniques such as organic manure use, crop rotation, and efficient water management, the group achieved promising yields and established a community fund for reinvestment. The initiative not only enhanced food security and household income but also aligned with World Vision’s ENOUGH campaign, which seeks to combat malnutrition and promote sustainable local production.

Sibonginkosi Mungoni, the Senior Advisor Livelihoods and Economic Recovery in Emergencies, emphasises that resilience must be central to humanitarian programming, especially in fragile contexts where children are most vulnerable. She raises the alarm on long-term recovery being sidelined for short-term relief in the humanitarian reset conversation. She calls for integrated, child-centred approaches backed by flexible funding to ensure sustainable impact and protect children from recurring crises.

Olena, a Ukrainian teacher, faces constant upheaval due to war. Evacuated thrice, she now seeks safety in Lviv with her daughters, relying on community support to stay resilient, continue her work, and provide stability for her students amid ongoing conflict.

How integrated investments across health, nutrition, education, protection, and social protection can help every child thrive amid global crises.

Every child deserves access to safe, nutritious food, yet millions across Africa face hunger and malnutrition due to conflict, climate shocks, and fragile food systems. Together, we must invest in resilient agriculture, empower communities, and ensure that nutrition is at the heart of food security strategies.
