Who we are
Destination Unknown is an international campaign to protect children on the move led by Terre des Hommes International Federation.
What we want
Children on the move have the right to move as well as being protected, based on their best interest and on their views.
What we do
With Destination Unknown, Terre des Hommes operates on the field, raises awareness and advocates for changes.
Millions of children around the world are on the move. They lost home. They are escaping poverty, violence or disaster. They may end up exploited or abused. Their destination is unknown. Let’s mobilize to protect their rights.
