Join our vision for children's health & nutrition
Good health and nutrition empowers children, families, and communities, spurring them on to live fuller, freer lives. Good health is transformative. We want every child to experience it. Children deserve—and have the right to—access to good health and nutrition. We want to see better access, lasting behavioural change, and to connect communities to what works so children and families can survive and thrive.
A world where all children are healthy
We are making progress. In Sierra Leone, we’ve helped severely malnourished children make a full recovery. We’ve fought against infection and disease in Zambia—training community health workers and families in prevention, and providing bed nets to protect children from malaria as they sleep. We’ve been courageous against injustice by challenging causes of early pregnancy in Eswatini and by enabling access to essential health services for Somali children.
But there’s more to be done. We see children dying from preventable issues because of violence, isolation, and powerlessness. We want hope to be restored. We want to promote good hygiene and nutrition for children. We want to strengthen health systems to serve vulnerable people through distribution of medication and medical supplies.

World Malaria Day
World Malaria Day is celebrated on April 25 each year. This year's theme, “Harness innovation to reduce the malaria disease burden and save lives”, draws attention to the critical role innovation plays in helping to achieve global malaria elimination goals.

Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV
The elimination of mother-to-child transmission of HIV is considered a realistic public health goal and an important part of World Vision's work.
