She woke up early. She packed her bag. She showed up. That walk to school is one of the most powerful things a girl can do. Every step is a declaration: I belong here. My future is mine. Protect it. Invest in it. Never take it for granted. 📚🧡 #GirlsEducation #HerFuture

Good morning, neighbour. ☀️ Jesus didn't say love your neighbour when it's convenient. He said love them as yourself — same grace, same patience, same care. Somebody needs that from you today. Go be it. Have a great week ahead. 🧡 "Love your neighbor as yourself." — Mark 12:31

“Water may seem basic, but it is human capital at its best.” - Ajay Banga, President, @WorldBankGroup At the World Bank Spring Meetings, one message came through clearly: water is rising on the global agenda. With nearly 4 billion people facing water insecurity, we celebrate the World Bank’s commitment to reach 1 billion more people by 2030, including through new country-led Water Compacts. At the same time, there is growing recognition that children’s well-being more broadly is still not sufficiently prioritised in international development financing and more is needed to sharpen focus on child-centred investments and actions. Throughout the week, our delegation engaged with the World Bank teams and World Bank Executive Directors and their offices, bringing attention to the needs of children in low- and middle-income countries and helping to connect the dots between policy, financing, and the lived realities of children and communities. We are encouraged that many leaders across the Bank and delegations acknowledged the deterioration of child well-being and showing interest in taking action. Also, it was encouraging to see the emphasis on building human capital at the Spring Meetings with significant focus on children. Some of the important opportunities later this year include the next replenishment of the International Development Association (IDA), development of the World Bank Country Partnership Frameworks and the upcoming World Bank Fragility Forum. The question is now: What actions should be prioritised to ensure global financing delivers for children and communities? Join the conversation.

She walked into that classroom destined for greatness. Education doesn't just change her life — it changes everything after her. 1 in 5 children in Southern Africa is still out of school. That has to change. 📚 #EducationChangesEverything #WorldVision #SouthernAfrica @unescoROSA

Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for close to 30 % of all out-of-school children globally. 1 in 5 children in is not in school. For girls in rural areas, the number is higher. World Vision SARO's education programmes exist for exactly this reason. #Education #Literacy #WorldVision

A meal today. A future tomorrow. 🍽️✨ When children eat at school, they don’t just fill their stomachs — they fill their dreams. This year, we’re working to reach even more learners with nutritious meals that keep them in class, focused, and full of hope.

Across Southern Africa, we witness hope emerging in the hardest places—relationships restored, communities strengthened, and children protected. ✨ This is what faith in action looks like. #FaithInAction #WorldVision #SouthernAfrica

Every child deserves a full plate & a full life. Across Southern Africa, too many children still sleep hungry. World Vision is working with families, governments, & partners to ensure children have Enough nutritious food. Enough opportunity. Enough hope.
