About

We are part of a global alliance of governments, NGOs, policymakers, researchers, charities, and businesses working to build a world where street-connected children and homeless youth are treated equally, have the right to be heard, and the right to life, survival, and development.

Street-connected children are those who depend on the streets for survival—whether they live there, work there, rely on street-based networks for support, or experience a combination of these.

We are changing the world for street-connected children and homeless youth by:
    •     Ensuring they have equal access to services, resources, care, and opportunities
    •     Amplifying their voices so they can share their views and shape their futures
    •     Ending the discrimination they face every day around the world

Our work connects with the wider movement led by our UK partner, the Consortium for Street Children, to:
    •     Strengthen and expand a global network
    •     Support shared learning and research
    •     Shape policy and influence decision-makers
