Coronavirus: United in suffering, and united in responding

Coronavirus response: Collaborating and advocating for vulnerable children
To protect the most vulnerable children from the secondary effects of COVID-19, World Vision is partnering with community groups, faith-based organizations, United Nations agencies, other aid groups, and all levels of governments.

That’s why supporting children impacted by the secondary effects of the pandemic is one of four key objectives of our coronavirus response.
