Honduras

Unreliable rains have put additional strain on Hondurans in recent years. The key to combating hunger and disease in these conditions is to build household and community resilience. A lack of clean water is another environmental and health issue for children in Honduras. Community volunteers, health staff, church leaders and sanitation committees partner with us to train families on treating water and practicing basic sanitation to improve the health and nutrition of children.

World Vision Honduras

For almost 46 years, World Vision Honduras has been committed to the protection and care of children and those who need it most. From its arrival in 1974 as a humanitarian response to the disasters caused by Hurricane Fifi, to the COVID-19 crisis that is currently affecting the world, World Vision Honduras has gone where others would not. Even in the places where it is hardest to be a child, God is there—and we should be too.

Our community development approach works to help children and families break the cycle of poverty and reach their God-given potential.

Our programs focus on community transformation, with improving the well-being of children at the heart of our work.

We address climate change through programs that aim to strengthen the resilience of children, families and communities in the face of the effects of climate variability.

Improving youth education and employability is an institutional commitment of World Vision Honduras to contribute to the development of skills, competencies and economic opportunities of children, adolescents, youth and their families.

Our child protection programs seek to strengthen systems and structures—together with key partners—to reduce violence by transforming it into a culture of peace.
