World Vision works in Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Timor-Leste. This is where the needs are most urgent with alarming health indicators similar to countries in sub-Saharan Africa.
Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands fall into the UN’s category of the poorest countries in the world. Vanuatu is consistently ranked as the most at risk country in the world to natural disaster - in 2015 it was devastated by tropical cyclone Pam, and months later severely affected by drought from the El Nino weather pattern. Timor Leste has the highest rate of child malnutrition in the world.
In these four countries we have vast experience and programming expertise.
World Vision is a Christian aid agency and we help people on the basis of their need. This means our assistance is given regardless of race, religion or creed. We help the poorest of the poor and go where we are needed the most.
Unfortunately, we can no longer link a school or church account to your personal account. We are looking at how to bring this functionality to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
