NOURISH (Nature-based Opportunities Underpinning Resilient and Sustainable Households, 2023-2027)
NOURISH is a long-term development programme to reduce poverty and hunger in vulnerable households and communities in Mauritania, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Uganda and Tanzania. The programme aims to ensure that vulnerable children are well-nourished in climate-resilient households by putting emphasis on livelihoods and economic empowerment for women and engaging with men and boys to transform attitudes and norms on gender and inclusion.
EMPOWER! (Enabling Meaningful Participation of Women and girls for Essential Rights, 2023-2027)
EMPOWER! is World Vision Ireland’s Chronic Humanitarian Crises programme which aims to protect and empower the most vulnerable women and girls in fragile contexts in Somalia, South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Syria. Emphasis is placed on education and child protection services, economic empowerment, community protection networks and transforming attitudes and norms on gender and inclusion.
RISE (Responding Immediately to Sudden Emergencies, 2023-2027)
Through Irish Aid’s Acute Crisis Stream, prepositioned funding allows World Vision to quickly respond to rapid-onset disasters such as floods or earthquakes, and acute chronic crises, such as conflict or drought. We provide lifesaving support based on the needs of the affected populations; this can include emergency health services, water and sanitation, non-food items, protection services or livelihood assistance.

ARDHI Tanga (Accelerating Reforestation for the Development of Households In Tanga, 2024 - 2027)
The ARDHI Tanga project aims to promote sustainable forest management and wood-fuel production in Tanzania through enhanced natural resource management and sustainable wood-fuel value chains.
PEACE Mindanao (Promoting Efforts Addressing Conflict through Education in Mindanao, 2023 - 2026)
World Vision Ireland recognises the active role children can play as agents of peace. Building on the Empowering Children as Peacebuilders (ECaP) project model, the project aims to build peaceful and cohesive communities in the Philippines. Working closely with government ministries and other stakeholders, the project aims to increase children’s capacity and confidence as peace ambassadors.
CVAVAC (Citizen Voices Addressing Violence Against Children, 2021 - 2024)
The CVAVAC project uses the Citizen Voice and Action (CVA) project model to engage stakeholders through policy influencing advocacy initiatives, information dissemination and behaviour change messaging on protection issues children face in the justice sector in Lesotho. The project aims to empower communities to advocate for improvements of service delivery, particularly relating to child rights and violence against children.
