Marking two years of impactful collaboration, World Vision International and Juzoor for Health and Social Development are calling for renewed efforts to address the escalating mental health crisis affecting Palestinian children in the West Bank.

World Vision Iraq, a child-focused humanitarian organization, continued its mission in FY24 by addressing critical needs across health, education, livelihoods, protection, and WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene). Operating under a sustained humanitarian response framework since 2014, the organization has transitioned toward long-term recovery and resilience-building efforts. In FY24, it impacted the lives of 156, 976 million vulnerable children and community members across Iraq, especially in conflict-affected areas. Emphasizing community empowerment, World Vision Iraq collaborated with local partners and stakeholders to enhance service delivery and promote sustainable development, while integrating peacebuilding and climate resilience strategies within its humanitarian-development-peace nexus approach.

Residents of Nyimba District gathered in celebration on May 14, 2025, as World Vision Zambia officially handed over a maternity annex and transformative water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) infrastructure projects, marking a significant step forward in community development and public health.

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.

In Kosa Qala, northern Afghanistan, families had no choice but to drink from contaminated water sources. Waterborne diseases were part of daily life, especially for children. The burden fell hardest on women, children, and people with disabilities like Jamaludin. Now, clean water flows from taps at their doorsteps — a lifeline made possible through World Vision’s programme. But this progress is fragile. Afghanistan’s water crisis is a multifaceted emergency, fueled by climate change, and inadequate infrastructure. A staggering 59% of water systems are broken or dried up after decades of underfunding. Without urgent and sustained investment in water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), millions more lives will be at risk. 🎥 Watch the story of Kosa Qala – a powerful reminder of what’s at stake and why this vital work must continue across more villages.
