Children for Health is an organisation dedicated to child-centred health education, with a unique hub of valuable information, activities, news and knowledge, developed by international development professionals and curated by health experts, that focuses on essential health education for children, families, teachers and community workers. Our resources are freely-available and intended to be used and adapted to help to save the lives of children and other people exposed to the dangers of disease and accidents or injury. We design and develop materials to be distributed both digitally and via traditional tools like books and teaching aids.
