For children growing up in war and conflict, safety is more than having a roof over their heads. War Child creates Safe Spaces where children can play, learn and recover. These spaces use evidence-based methods, including structured psychosocial support, sports, games and creative activities, developed and tested to support children's wellbeing. Trained facilitators help children express emotions, rebuild confidence and reconnect with others. Safe Spaces provide stability and routine, strengthen
Millions of children growing up in war and conflict are exposed to violence, fear, loss and disruption of daily life. Many lose access to safe environments, education and opportunities to play. This can seriously affect their mental wellbeing, development and ability to cope with stress, leaving them isolated and vulnerable without appropriate support.
War Child creates Safe Spaces where children can play, learn and recover in a protected environment. Using evidence-based psychosocial methods, trained facilitators support children through structured activities such as sports, games and creative expression. These help children process emotions, rebuild confidence and reconnect with others while restoring routine and stability.
Safe Spaces strengthen children's resilience and coping skills, helping them recover from the impact of war and conflict. By improving psychosocial wellbeing and restoring access to structured support and learning, children are better able to continue their education, rebuild social connections and work towards a more stable and hopeful future.
