World Vision Laos

 

World Vision has helped children and communities in Laos for 40 years, aiming to create better futures for those in need.

We connect with communities to create a life-changing experience through development, relief, and advocacy. We adapt to challenges faced by vulnerable populations. Our programmes now focus on the most vulnerable children, especially in rural and remote areas with ethnic communities.

In 2022, we assisted a total of 359,000 individuals in Laos. This included support for 139,000 children. Our programs focused on improving nutrition, education, child rights, and emergency aid.

Integrated Health & Nutrition

 

Good health and nutrition empower children.

Our integrated approach promotes positive child development and well-being, prevents child death, reduces illness, and improves nutrition. We support pregnant women, mothers, caregivers, and service providers to protect, advocate for, and improve the health and nutrition of children where we work.
