East Asia is one of the most climate-exposed and disaster-prone region. Up to 65% of children face multiple and increasingly frequent shocks, including flooding, drought, saltwater inundation, and climate-related diseases. Children and families living in poverty are disproportionately affected.

Asia-Pacific is the most climate-exposed and disaster-prone region in the world. As many as 65% of children in East Asia are exposed to multiple shocks which are becoming increasingly frequent, especially flooding, drought, saltwater inundation, and climate-related diseases. Children and families living in poverty are particularly vulnerable, bearing the brunt of these recurrent crises and their longterm consequences.

As the Ukraine Crisis Response enters its fourth year, the impact of war continues to devastate the lives of millions, particularly children. Over the past three years, World Vision has reached more than 2 million people, including nearly 1 million children, providing critical support such as education, mental health services, cash assistance, livelihoods, winterisation and protection initiatives. Despite these efforts, the challenges remain immense. Millions of children are still displaced, struggling to access the basic needs every child deserves, and deprived of their rights to safety, education, health and home.

The story is about how a young girl named Nadia in Zambezia, Mozambique, recovered from moderate acute malnutrition thanks to the support and guidance of a local health committee. It highlights the committee's work in educating parents about nutrition and providing practical help, like demonstrating how to prepare enriched porridge. The story also connects Nadia's experience to the broader issue of child malnutrition in Mozambique, citing statistics from a Demographic and Health Survey, and introduces World Vision's "Enough" campaign, which aims to address this issue.

Investing over USD192 million annually, World Vision has reached 28.7 million people in recent years to access cleaner water, 20.9 million to access improved sanitation, and 34.7 million to adopt safer hygiene practices.
