THE TOUR DE PAKISTAN 2024 CHALLENGE WILL BE IN AID OF THE WORLD CAMPAIGN Our Children of the World campaign rebuilds young lives by supporting and strengthening local communities to protect children facing the gravest injustices. Working in some of the harshest environments you can imagine, we have rescued thousands of children from the street where abuse and exploitation were all they have known. We understand that every country and community is different, and our projects are designed to synchronise with the society norms, culture and government policies. In Pakistan, we support children involved in child labour in Peshawar and brothel children in Lahore. Our social mobilisers encourage them to join our informal education centres where we ensure their education and psychosocial well-being. In Bangladesh, we have been rescuing street children since 2014. We have a permanent transitional shelter in Dhaka and regular Schools under the Sky in busy ferry terminals like Sadarghat which are informal schools aiming to give street children a basic education.
