Guinea
In Guinea, children are particularly affected by poverty and the needs remain great. Present since 1987, Terre des hommes (Tdh) improves access to health, protection, education and justice. We work with state actors and our activities take place in close collaboration with the beneficiary families and communities. Our goal is to improve the conditions of the most vulnerable children in a sustainable way.
