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

FY25 was a year of hard choices and courageous leadership. In the face of escalating global crises, we responded to 108 emergencies, reaching nearly 36 million people—including over 18 million children—with life-saving food, cash, health care, education, and protection. Determined to do more with less, we reimagined humanitarian operations, driving cost-efficiency and resilience while embracing digital transformation. Artificial intelligence and automation helped reinvest savings into communities, even as funding tightened. We strengthened the sector through training and surge capacity, deepened partnerships to champion child-focused humanitarian action, and pushed for a Humanitarian Reset—an aid system that is decentralised, inclusive, and accountable. In the world’s most fragile contexts, we proved that children can thrive when compassion meets purpose. FY25 wasn’t just about responding to crises—it was about shaping the future of humanitarian action.

At the Fifty-third Session of the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) held in Rome from October 20–24, World Vision joined global leaders and partners to spotlight a critical truth: hunger is not just a food crisis—it’s a child protection crisis.

New findings from UNICEF’s State of the World’s Children 2025 remind us that more than 417 million children are severely deprived in at least two essential areas of life.

World Vision Ghana launches its 2026–2030 WASH Business Plan and Universal Service Coverage Programme, aiming to deliver sustainable water, sanitation, and hygiene services to over 700,000 people across 23 districts.

In humanitarian crises, food security is often treated as a standalone goal. But World Vision is helping shift that paradigm — proving that protecting children must be central to how we feed, recover, and rebuild. Together with the Child Protection Area of Responsibility, the Alliance for Child Protection in Humanitarian Action, Plan International, and the Food Security Cluster, World Vision is setting a new standard: one where child well-being is not an afterthought, but a core outcome of humanitarian response.
