Each year, Oxford University Press names a Childrenโ€™s Word of the Year. For 2025, children across the UK chose peace.

With 1 in 5 children worldwide now living through or affected by conflict, itโ€™s no surprise.

Theyโ€™re paying attention. Theyโ€™re asking for change. Itโ€™s time the world listened.

Children cannot afford a world where these protections are allowed to fall apart. Speak out, demand accountability, and stand with children caught in conflict - wherever they are, and whether or not the world is paying attention.

We need collective action. Most of all, we need our political leaders to take a stand. We have to renew our commitment to international law and the rights of children โ€“ wherever and whenever they are being violated.

Conflict robs children of safety, education, healthcare, and hope - and the consequences for many will last a lifetime. But it doesn't have to be this way.

From Venezuela to Iran, Syria to Sudan, Gaza to Ukraine, and countless other countries, we are seeing a dangerous global pattern: growing instability, eroded protections, rights violations and children paying the price for this failure.

Right now, 1 in 5 children worldwide are growing up affected by conflict. Instead of safety, school and play, they face fear, displacement and loss every single day. The need for action has never been more urgent.

For 1,000 days children in Sudan have been running from gunfire, abduction, rape and forced recruitment. Many are alone, separated from their families or orphaned, walking hundreds of kilometres trying to find safety.

As we enter 2026, our cause remains clear: no child should be part of war. Ever. More children are at risk from conflict than at any time since WWII. With your support, we will protect children, keep them learning, support recovery, and defend their rightsโ€”into 2026 and beyond.

For children around the world, this time of year should mean family, warmth, and safety. For thousands of Ukrainian children forcibly transferred into Russia, it means something very different.

As a result, 180k children are living in areas experiencing famine with almost no food - facing severe hunger, malnutrition, and death. The World Food Programme has warned that without urgent funding, they will soon have to stretch food supplies, even in famine-hit areas.

Children in Sudan are being left to starve.

Right now, only 35% of the humanitarian aid needed in 2025 has been pledged, according to Care International. Governments are cutting aid even as need grows more extreme every day.

We are blown away by the incredible @jinglejam.co.uk fundraising! You've now raised ยฃ400K+ for War Child!

That could provide 2,000 children in Afghanistan at risk of child labour, early marriage and exploitation with protection, trauma recovery and long term support.
