Why do we network?

Printer-friendly versionSend to friendVersion PDF

Terre des Hommes has developed its networking methods these last few years, in order to improve the impact of its activities, develop its synergies and take advantage of the competence and experience of other NGOs.

TdH also contributes to the network according to its capacities and interests, sometimes modestly and sometimes more actively, but always in actions or campaigns in connection with Children’s Rights.

  • The production and distribution of educational material with the Foundation for Education and Development.
  • The fight against child trafficking with the campaign of the International Federation of Terre des Hommes.
  • The fight against child labour with Global March (born out of the first Global March in 1998).

We are also active in various umbrella organisations and work from various platforms.
