ChildFund is committed to protecting and advancing children’s and youth’s rights through policy advocacy - from pushing for holistic, common-sense solutions for issues affecting children, to working to make the internet safer, to promoting girls' empowerment – we work with a wide variety of stakeholders, including young people themselves, to demand better laws and policies to protect and support children and youth and build stronger communities at the local, national and global levels. ChildFund believes that advocating and working directly with governments to adopt child-focused legislation and programs leads to sustainable change and greater local ownership that will have impacts far beyond what we can achieve alone.
