Tegenwoordig kun je geen krant meer openslaan of televisie aanzetten of je leest, ziet en hoort over de problematiek rondom agressie en geweld. Het is helaas nog steeds iets waar wij als samenleving dagelijks mee geconfronteerd worden.
Maar gelukkig komt hier ook iets positiefs uit voort: steeds meer mensen voelen zich betrokken, willen iets doen. Bewustwording van de problematiek kan uitgroeien naar een gedragsverandering. Een verharde maatschappij kan groeien naar een betrokken samenleving. Maar hoe? En door wie?

Iedereen kan wat doen tegen agressie en geweld!
Niemand verwacht dat agressie en geweld helemaal weg te bannen zijn uit onze samenleving. Maar, jong of oud: iedereen kan iets doen om pesten, agressie en geweld te verminderen. Dit doe je niet door af te wachten of naar een ander te wijzen. Dit doe je door zelf, in het groot of in het klein, acties te ondernemen om jouw leefomgeving te verbeteren of agressie en geweld onder de aandacht te brengen.

Alle acties, klein of groot, maken samen een wereld van verschil!

One and a half million children have been killed in armed conflicts throughout the world over the last ten years. Four million children have been disabled in these conflicts. Many millions more, themselves traumatised, have had their communities destroyed, or have been denied the opportunity to celebrate in full their childhood and prevented from developing the livelihood skills that they will need to live fulfilling lives as they grow.

War Child's beliefs
War Child believes that children should never be the victims of armed conflict. For those children who become victims of armed conflict, War Child believes that their security and access to quality health, education and recreational facilities and services should still be a right and that, wherever possible, they should benefit from the love and care of their families and communities.

War Child's Mission
By harnessing the commitment to the commonly held belief that children should never be the victims of armed conflict, War Child exists to:
- provide emergency relief to children and those people they depend upon in areas of armed conflict.
- protect children who live in areas of armed conflict.
- address the on-going consequences of conflict on children.

War Child does this by:
- working with local communities, their organisations and local authorities in both conflict and post-conflict areas to support children and the people they depend upon.
- ensuring sustainable security for children.
- promoting child supportive livelihood opportunities.
- addressing the developmental needs of the most vulnerable and marginalised children.

Background
War Child was founded in 1993 in response to the conflict raging in the former Yugoslavia. Initially raising money through entertainment events and public appeals, War Child set out to bring immediate material aid to children of all ages and ethnic backgrounds.

As War Child grew it was able to undertake larger projects, the first being a mobile bakery which fed thousands of people a day throughout the conflict in Bosnia. Funding a network of NGOs and implementing more than twenty projects throughout the region, War Child's work included food provision, medical care, reconstruction and educational and social welfare programmes. The opening of the Pavarotti Music Centre in Mostar marked the culmination of War Child's work in Bosnia, and the centre stands as a symbol of hope and regeneration in the country.

War Child has since spread its work to war zones around the world. As well as continuing its work in the Balkans, War Child is currently operational in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Working without prejudice of any kind, War Child champions the right of all children to a happy, healthy and secure childhood. It works together with children to help build a better world for present and future generations.

The Hardest Part

You can travel from heart to heart, but you can't run away from the person you are in your own heart.
You can be who you want to be and make us believe in you, by keeping all your light in the dark.
When you are searching for the truth, than take a look in the mirror and make sense of what you can see.
Thay say learning to love your self is the first step that you take when you want to be real and flying on fantasies,
dreams and promisses, won't teach you how you really feel. You have to face up the fact that you are
who you are and nothing can change that belief.
'Cause I know, It's not so far to were I go.

The hardest part is inside of me.
Dance 4 Life

Dance4Life is de tweejarig terugkerende, internationale actiecampagne waarbij jongeren zelf het heft in handen nemen in de strijd tegen hiv en aids. Hiv en aids treft vooral de jonge generatie. Daarom is het ook juist die generatie die is opgestaan om te dansen.

Uiteindelijk willen we de hele wereld aan het dansen hebben in de strijd tegen hiv en aids! In 2012 hopen we een miljoen jongeren aan het dansen te hebben! Jij hoort natuurlijk ook daarbij.

Laat zien dat ook jij achter het initiatief staat door een deze avatar op je pro te plaatsen.
