After years of research, reform and advocacy, there is broad consensus on one essential truth: children thrive best when they grow up in families, not institutions.
@soschildrenuk are investing in keeping families together and in family-based care.

As the @nytimes reports more than 30,000 people have been killed in #Gaza since 7 October, we look at the almost unimaginable impact on children and young people

Life has changed beyond recognition for people living in the Gaza Strip. While children are always the innocent victims of any violent conflict, the impact of this war on children is unprecedented.

'The rights of children are being violated daily. When the most basic ones – the right to life, survival & protection during war & conflict – are being completely disregarded, there is little hope that other rights will be respected.'

'Impact of this war on children is unprecedented. New acronym – WCNSF, which stands for Wounded Child, No Surviving Family – is a sobering reminder of the price children in #Gaza are paying & will continue to pay for this war.'

We are devasted by the lives lost in #Gaza & shocked by the destruction of civilian infrastructure, including apartments that were housing families supported by @sos_children's programmes before the conflict began. #CeasefireNOW

Early #mentalhealth intervention and trauma-informed care are essential to guarantee quality alternative care for children who have been separated from their families and often already experienced adversity.

Around the 🌍, children take action for a more peaceful, just, gender equal & sustainable future.
To guarantee their right to participation & support the achievement of #SDGs, governments must include children in policy & decision-making. #UNGA78 #JoiningForces

#SDGSummit:
Without renewed political commitment, the 2030 #SDGs are set to fail. As we accelerate progress towards them, we must prioritize a child-centered approach & stand behind children & families living in crises & poverty.
