Save the Children Canada fights for children's
rights and delivers lasting and immediate
improvements to children's lives worldwide.
Save the Children Canada is unique in that unlike other charitable organisations, we are active within Canada as well as in 10 countries overseas. • Save the Children Canada is a non- political and non-sectarian organisation. • We believe in involving children in issues and decisions that will directly influence their lives, as well as the communities in which they live. Child participation can only be genuine and effective through listening and respecting children's views and the way in which they choose to express them. It involves nurturing their strengths, interests and abilities through the provision of meaningful opportunities to contribute to their own development and that of their peers, families and communities. • We are an organisation that upholds the UN Conventions on the Rights of the Child.
