What is the Save the Children Europe Group?
Save the Children Europe Group is a network of Save the Children organisations working in ten European Union (EU) states and three non-EU states. Like other Save the Children organisations, its members work with and for children in their own countries and abroad.
The principle of children's rights lies at the heart of the Save the Children Europe Group. Save the Children Europe Groups’s aim is to help further children's rights in Europe and elsewhere by promoting children's interests in European policy making , funding and programmes.
