All for Children sums up our hopes and dreams and the partnerships we seek to build. All that we do, we do for children… and we work at it with all of our heart, because children deserve nothing less. We believe that all people share in a universal calling to care for all the children of our world, so all of the tools and approaches we offer are designed to bring people together—in all their wonderous diversity—to build a better world for children.

Through the ongoing campaign against albino-phobia in Tanzania, GNRC-Tanzania in partnership with @UTSSofficial and CEFA-Tanzania continues to sensitize the community against stereotyping and discriminating albinos in Tanzania. Here is a recent video through the campaign with the message, "Albinsim is Just a Colour: People Living with Albinisim Deserve Equal Rights as Any Other Person."

Ending today’s unprecedented violence against children calls for extraordinary and urgent collaboration among religious and spiritual communities, UN agencies, international and multilateral organizations, governments, civil society, the private sector, media—and, most importantly, with children. We honor children’s unique contributions to, and insights about, ending violence.

A Year Ago Today, leaders and members of the world’s religious and spiritual traditions, international and grassroots organizations, together with girls & boys from 70 countries, met for the GNRC 5th Forum in Panama City, Panama to address the global epidemic of violence against children. We grieve the fact that half of the world’s children endure physical, psychological or sexual violence. It is unacceptable that every five minutes, a child somewhere is killed in a violent act.

Building upon the GNRC’s 18 years of service to the world’s children, we affirm the fundamental dignity of every boy and girl. We reaffirm the moral imperative to protect children from harm, as enshrined and protected in the teachings of all of the world’s religious and spiritual communities and in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and its optional protocols. We believe in the power of interfaith cooperation to transform the world.

Children who have suffered physical, psychological or sexual violence need constant counselling, love and support from their loved ones. This will help them to recover from the chains of trauma.
