What We Do

The problem
Over 5.4 million children are trapped within institutions. Many of these children have families who could look after them, if they had the right support.

How we work
Our goal is to make orphanages history. Find out how we're working with families, local partners and governments, to achieve that goal.
-
Where we work
We work in countries across Eastern Europe, South and Eastern Africa and South Asia to stop the institutionalisation of children.
-
Campaigns
Together, we know we can end orphanages for good and keep children with families. Our campaigns will help us achieve this goal.

Publications
Over a hundred years of research proves institutional care is harmful to children, and that family and community care is better for children. We’ve produced and collated a range of publications relating to deinstitutionalisation, child care reform, and specific global regions. Browse our Publications here.
