    Imagine yourself in a tent, in the middle of nowhere. There’s no escape from the blistering summer heat or the biting winter cold. The walls of your tent barely shield you and your children from the elements. For Abu Ali, and millions of others, this is his reality. After 13 years of conflict and displacement, he and his family face relentless uncertainty, inadequate shelter, food insecurity and more. Thanks to funding from the World Food Programme, World Vision Syria Response launched a vital programme in Syria, providing vulnerable families like Abu Ali’s with food baskets and supplements. In a world where so much has been taken from them, these food baskets represent something: a glimmer of hope, a reason to keep going. “Thank you from the depths of my heart, and I hope this project continues to support all the people in the camps."

    Every week, thousands of Sudanese women flee to neighboring countries, seeking safety from gender-based violence that has become a weapon of conflict. *Fatima and *Samira are breaking the silence and sharing their heartbreaking stories. For these two women, and countless others, leaving everything behind is a desperate bid to escape a cycle of violence. We're on the ground, providing food, medicine and psychosocial support, but the path to healing and justice is a long and uncertain one. But one thing is certain: we must not ignore the violence they have experienced and continue to experience. Violence against women and girls must end. *Names changed to protect the identity of the survivors.

    Hunger is an emergency—but it’s also a solvable one. At the #G20Summit, World Vision joins forces with global leaders in the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty as one of its founding members. Our $3.4 billion commitment through the #ENOUGH campaign aims to end child hunger and create a world where every child has access to nutritious food. Today, hunger impacts 733 million people, and children are most at risk. This is our chance to change that. Join us in demanding that governments prioritise school meals and address the root causes of hunger. Let’s say #ENOUGHchildhunger!
