    Goals / Remit

    The mission of the Terre des Hommes organisations is to provide active support to children, without racial, religious, political, cultural or gender-based discrimination. The Convention on the Rights of the Child constitutes the conceptual framework guiding the activities of the Terre des Hommes organisations.

    In their own countries and regions, the Terre des Hommes organisations bring to the attention of the public, including children and young people, the causes of underdevelopment, together with the rights of the child.
    They mobilise political will and advocate appropriate governmental policies. They undertake fund raising activities to achieve their objectives.
    The International Secretariat ensures coordination among the Terre des Hommes organisations and representation at an international and European level.
