April – June 2025

World Vision Afghanistan’s situation reports, outlining activities and impact for the months of April and May 2025.

Families across the West Bank are facing an unprecedented crisis marked by hunger, poverty, and fear, according to a new report released today by World Vision. The Unseen Crisis highlights the worsening situation for children, revealing an almost tenfold increase in the number of families reporting that a member had gone a full day without eating since 2022. Three out of four households surveyed are now unable to cover their most essential needs, and half of the children are regularly skipping meals.  

Three months have passed since the devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025, yet humanitarian conditions remain critical. Early rains have further deteriorated the living situation for many children and families still residing in makeshift shelters, struggling to rebuild their lives. Access to clean water, sanitation, healthcare, and protection services, particularly for those displaced in Mandalay and Sagaing, remains dire. The earthquake compounds an already dire humanitarian situation where nearly 20 million people already needed humanitarian assistance across the country due to prolonged conflict, recurring natural disasters and economic collapse.

Communities in the West Bank are enduring a deepening crisis. Daily life has become increasingly difficult due to a sharp rise in violence, severe restrictions on movement, and the sudden loss of access to work. In response to the worsening situation, World Vision undertook a broad listening exercise to better understand how families in the West Bank are coping and what support they need most. By engaging with parents, children, community leaders, and volunteers across a wide area, we aimed to capture the real-life impact of the crisis on people’s everyday lives.

This promising practice document captures the key interventions, lessons learned, and recommendations from the SPIR Project in Ethiopia, providing actionable insights and recommendations for future programmes aimed at enhancing gender equality and nutrition outcomes.

As climate induced disasters get more frequent and intense, proactive and community driven solutions have never been so urgent. Through Anticipatory Action, World Vision has empowered local actors to take preventative measures before disaster strikes.

Between January and March 2025, World Vision delivered over 58,700 services to children and families on the move across Latin America—demonstrating a sustained, child-focused, and community-driven response to an evolving migration crisis.

In 2024, we reached 17.9 million people, including 9.5 million children, and responded to over 16 emergencies across the region. From food security and health to protection and education, our work has brought tangible relief and hope to families affected by crisis.
