We are committed to holding ourselves accountable for the promises we make to our supporters, partners, staff, and most of all, children. This means looking back at our commitments, celebrating our successes and learning from any mistakes in order to do more and do better.
In 2022, we directly reached nearly 48.8 million children across 116 countries around the world. We responded to 107 emergencies in 66 countries, reaching 34.4 million people including 18.8 million children. We also contributed to 129 significant changes and implementation of policy or legislation change related to the most marginalised and deprived groups of children in different countries, regions and internationally. We supported a total of 86,084 children to lead, run and participate in campaigning. We spoke out in 28 instances of child rights violations.
