Policy and Research Intro

Our Work

The Policy and Research Team is at the heart of our advocacy work, providing sound research and analysis on the following key issues:

Child Rights - focusing on ‘invisible’ children such as those who are trafficked and abused, and ensuring that children are protected and their rights upheld

Economic Justice - seeking more and better aid, debt cancellation, trade justice and greater accountability

HIV and AIDS - fighting for full access to prevention, care and treatment for those affected by this deadly pandemic, with a particular focus on children

Peace and Conflict - advocating for greater conflict prevention, peacebuilding and peaceful and just solutions to ongoing conflicts

Disability - advising on, and promoting disability issues so that they are included in development and aid responses

We also address a number of cross-cutting issues such as gender and climate change, and support our emergency relief operations.
