On behalf of everyone at SOS Children’s Villages UK, we sincerely thank Sgema for their incredible support through the release of The Boy and the Wall, a moving charity picture book created by Palestinian refugees from the Aida Refugee Camp, Bethlehem.    We are deeply grateful that all profits will go towards raising emergency funds for SOS Children’s Villages Palestine, making a significant impact in the lives of Palestinian children and families. Thank you!

Targeting areas designated as humanitarian safe zones - intended to protect displaced families - is utterly unacceptable and demonstrates a blatant disregard for human life.

Earlier this week, we recognised the 35th anniversary of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (#CRC35), a poignant reminder of the urgent need to protect children affected by conflict. With 470 million children impacted globally, it is time to hold leaders accountable, prioritise prevention, and ensure every child has access to care, education, and family support. Together, we can amplify children’s voices, build brighter futures, and make peace a reality! 🌍 #StompingForPeace

On the 35th anniversary of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (#CRC35), children worldwide are demanding accountability, prevention and protection for the 470 million children affected by war and 30 million displaced. By #StompingForPeace, we want to hold leaders accountable for breaking international laws and ensure that children are involved in decisions about their futures and peacebuilding efforts. We aim to prioritise conflict prevention and uphold children’s rights, ensuring they are protected from the devastating impact of war.

Together, we can work for a safer future where every child's rights are respected and their voices are heard! #CRC35 #WorldChildrensDay
