About Child Helpline International

Child Helpline International is a collective impact organization with more than 150 child helpline members from over 130 countries and territories around the world.

We coordinate information, viewpoints, knowledge and data from our members, from our partners and from other external sources. This exceptional resource is used to support child protection systems globally, regionally and nationally, and to help our child helpline members advocate for the rights of children and young people, and amplify their voices.

Every year, our child helpline members around the world field more than 13 million individual calls, and provide counselling services to around 3 million children and young people. Until the founding of Child Helpline International in 2003, these organizations did their great work in isolation, with no access to one another. Now, we’re working together each and every day to bring children and young people’s voices to policymakers, decision makers and influencers.

Every child has a voice. We’re here to make sure that the world hears, listens and acts upon these voices.
