Vision and principles
Our vision is a world where children and young people on the move worldwide enjoy their human rights, are not discriminated against, thrive, and have a future.
We believe that governments and practitioners working with children affected by migration should be guided by 9 principles. We know that won’t happen overnight, which is why we are engaged for the long haul.

We empower children, young people, their families and communities, learn from what works – and what children say works - and campaign for lasting change in their lives.
