About World Vision International:

In order to meet the immediate needs of children and families impacted by natural catastrophes and decades of violence, World Vision International (WVI) started emergency relief activities in Afghanistan in 2001. Over ten years later, World Vision Afghanistan’s (WVA) initiatives have grown to include development areas including nutrition, health, child protection, WASH, and education, enabling women to participate in interfaith partnerships for civic and social change.

In order to achieve our goal of “Improved survival and well-being of Afghan girls and boys, building the foundations for a better future for Afghan children and their communities,” these priorities have been selected.
