SAVE THE CHILDREN EUROPE
Save the Children Europe works in Brussels to ensure European Union (EU) policies and funding have a lasting and positive impact on children’s lives. We focus on making sure the EU fights child poverty in Europe and in developing countries; that the EU responds to humanitarian crises and protects children in conflict, invests in health and education and protects the rights of children in migration. Save the Children Europe brings together expertise in both advocacy and donor relations. The European Commission is one of Save the Children’s primary institutional donors and an important partner for our work: our office in Brussels coordinates this important partnership. Save the Children Europe works with the EU institutions to break cycles of poverty, inequality and conflict, invest in children inside and outside Europe’s borders, and to listen to children’s voices, involving them in decisions which affect their futures. In order to influence key decisions taken in Brussels, we collaborate closely with Save the Children offices across the EU and with staff in our programmes around the world.

Lao PDR–Australia Partnership Helps Reducing Dropout among Vulnerable Girls in School
Early results from the programme's first school year have been highly encouraging. Of the 800 vulnerable girls supported through FLIP, only one student dropped out of school during the 2025–2026 academic year, highlighting the project's success in helping girls remain in education during a critical stage of their learning journey.
Funded by the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) through the System Transformation Grant (STG), FLIP is implemented by the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES), with Save the Children International serving as Grant Agent. The project provides scholarships to 800 vulnerable girls across five provinces and nine districts, alongside summer camps and Girls' Clubs that support literacy, numeracy, health, and wellbeing.

LILY (16), HANDWASHING & HYGIENE CHILD CHAMPION, MOZAMBIQUE
When 16-year-old Lily’s house was flooded in the early hours of the morning, she fled with her family to a nearby school, which was converted into an evacuation centre. Many of the family’s possessions were washed away and the walls of one of their buildings were knocked down. Many crops and seeds were lost from the family farm, making it difficult for the family to find food in the flood’s aftermath.
While she was at the evacuation centre, Lily joined Save the Children’s Child Friendly Space and received training in handwashing and water treatment from the Emergency Health Unit. Lily is passionate about teaching her sister and other children in her community how to wash their hands to prevent infectious disease such as cholera.
