For the classroom

Looking for fun ways of helping children and young people learn and make a difference for other children?

We've got all the classroom resources, fundraising activities, campaigning opportunities and support you're looking for.

Conflict Children campaign

Millions of children around the world are affected by conflict. It is estimated that 200,000-300,000 children in more than 20 countries become direct participants in war. We call them child soldiers.

First News, DFID and Save the Children have launched the Conflct Children campaign for schools. Learn more about the Conflict Children campaign.

Young people campaigning

Young people's views should be listened to and taken seriously. If they are outraged by the situation faced by millions of children around the world, then we encourage them to act for change.

Check out our young campaigners page for ideas and information to help young people get their voices heard - at schools, in their community or by governments.

Education resources

Our educational resources help children and young people in formal and informal educational settings learn about what it means to be a global citizen. They'll be inspired to:

think about our connections with others
question inequalities
take responsibility
protect human rights.

You can search our resources to find activities based on many different issues, including: children's rights, international development, global citizenship and child participation.
