Education

We support and improve access to good education and regular school attendance at every level, fostering inclusion and continued learning.

We bring clean water and basic healthcare to schools and communities around the world, helping prevent unsafe sanitation.

Emergencies

We save lives and help meet the basic needs of communities affected by natural disasters and manmade emergencies.

We fight child malnutrition in Italy and beyond by providing education and food programmes in schools and communities.

Gender equality

We combat gender discrimination and stereotypes, supporting equal opportunities for all girls and boys.

Child protection

We fight all forms of child abuse, enabling all children to achieve their dreams in the communities where they live.
