In honor of Mother’s Day and the United Nations Special Session on Children, Save the Children is publishing its third annual State of the World’s Mothers report. By focusing on the millions of mothers and children whose lives have been disrupted by war and armed conflict, this report helps to bring attention to critical humanitarian and development needs in war-torn communities around the world, and to suggest actions needed to support women who are raising the world’s future generations under some of the most difficult and horrific circumstances imaginable.
