    World Vision International have ‘’partnership-wide campaign’’ that aims to bring extreme poverty to
    an end by 2030, with a focus on the following areas:

     Deepening its commitment to the most vulnerable girls and boys by realigning its focus and
    footprint to reduce extreme vulnerability, developing effective and relevant programming,
    deploying the right leadership, attitude, and capabilities, and allocating funds for greatest
    impact.

     Focusing its ministry for greater results by becoming an impact-driven, market-informed


    organization with a culture and practice of maximizing impact with every decision and action it
    takes.

     Collaborating and advocating for broader impact by being a partner of choice, valuing diverse
    perspectives and approaches, continuing to grow a global movement through its It Takes a
    World campaign, amplifying children's voices at the highest level of advocacy engagements, and
    leveraging the entire organization to build an evidence-based local-to-global advocacy approach.

     Delivering high quality, sustainable funding by unlocking the power of its global scale and
    Christian distinctiveness to focus on child sponsorship revenue, prioritize private funding, and
    grow grants across all relevant markets to support programming priorities.

    Strategy in Action:

     Developing and scaling evidence-based models that tackle the spiritual roots of poverty,
    vulnerability, and injustice.

     Acting as connectors by mobilizing Christians, the church, and other faith leaders to address the
    spiritual causes of poverty and injustice.

     Continuing to become more externally oriented, taking hold of opportunities to mobilise the
    Christian church to demonstrate God’s unconditional love for children.

     World Vision International is also committed to living out its Christian faith and calling with
    boldness and humility, and to changing from an identity and strength not yet fully utilized to
    living out its Christian faith in all it does in harmony with those of other faiths and none.

    To conclude, World Vision International's humanitarian work is a testament that religious


    organizations can have a positive impact in a globalized world. Through its Christian faith, World Vision
    has been able to connect with people around the world with diverse backgrounds to provide essential
    aid and support. This shows how religion can be a powerful drive for good, fostering compassion,
    solidarity, and a commitment to human welfare.
