As traditional funding collapses and crises escalate, businesses bring more than money; they offer innovation, scale, and new models for sustaining aid. But partnerships must be carefully governed to avoid unintended harm. This article was originally published on TRTWorld.

The armed conflict in Northern Mozambique has triggered a severe child rights crisis, leaving 441,721 children and 5,365 teachers in urgent need of humanitarian education support, with 138 schools closed and 82,800 children having their learning interrupted. Despite the critical scale of this emergency, humanitarian education funding has alarmingly declined over the past four years, dropping from 37.5% coverage in 2022 to just 5.1% in 2025, marking the lowest funding level across all humanitarian clusters. Save the Children, alongside its allies, is therefore demanding urgent action from donors, UN agencies, and government stakeholders to demonstrate their duty of care and commitment to reverse this situation, protect the right of conflict-affected children to safe and uninterrupted learning, and prevent long-term, intergenerational impacts resulting from a lack of education.

As policymakers across the world grapple with how to keep children safe online, a growing number are recommending age-based social media 'bans' as a tool to help keep children safe. While laudable in intent, at Save the Children, we are concerned that laws banning children’s access to online spaces – particularly if used in isolation – risk creating unintended harms, and a false sense of safety, as well as curtailing the opportunities that online environments offer to children. There are better alternatives.

The humanitarian crisis in Northern Mozambique is escalating due to spreading violence, massive displacement (around 120,000 people, including 55,000 children newly displaced), and a severe funding collapse. The crisis is one of the world's most underfunded emergencies, with only US $73 million received against a required US $352 million. Humanitarian organizations call upon the international community, donors, and governments for urgent action, increased funding, and renewed commitment to address the rapidly growing needs.
