Save the Children is a
leading international organization
helping children in need around the world. First established in
the UK in 1919,
separate national organizations have been set up in more than
twenty-eight
countries, sharing the aim of improving the lives of children through
education, health care and economic opportunities, as well as emergency aid

cases of

awareness
of the needs and rights of children worldwide, Alliance members
coordinate

Nutrition Partnership Forum to influence government and donors to bring
the
issue of malnutrition and poverty into the national agenda.
