Our Work

Save the Children fights for the full exercise of children’s rights worldwide. Its experience and knowledge give it the capacity to act in many regions around the world while respecting the peculiarities of individual countries.

Save the Children Sweden projects its work beyond national borders. Its regional perspective encourages experience sharing between various countries, and makes possible working on a range of issues (e.g. refugee children, trafficking in boys and girls, etc.) and overcoming cultural taboos. Furthermore, Save the Children Sweden’s influence throughout the region allows it to influence economic or political organizations with a regional scope, such as the United Nations and the Organization of American States.

In the regions where it operates, Save the Children Sweden helps local organizations rise to the challenge of emergencies and natural catastrophes.
