Børnebeskyttelse er et mål i alt vores arbejde. Vi arbejder aktivt med børnebeskyttelse gennem vores og vores partneres aktiviteter, der søger at styrke sårbare familier for at forhindre adskillelse, beskytte gadebørn og generelt sætte børns rettigheder på dagsordenen. 100% for Børnene er medstifter af Det Danske Børnebeskyttelsesnetværk, som bl.a. har udgivet ’Lovende praksisser inden for børnebeskyttelse’.

Our programs give children and young people access to fundamental knowledge about health – and especially sexual and reproductive health and rights – so that they can make informed choices now and in the future leading to fewer school drop outs, reduced teen pregnancies and economic empowerment. We also work with menstrual health, mental health for young mothers, and, not least, support for vulnerable families so that children can grow up in a loving and safe environment that ensures children’s development – physically, psychologically, and socially.
100% for the Children aims to enhance educational access and quality while promoting gender equality and reducing barriers such as teen pregnancies, early/forced marriages and high dropout rates.

Marginalization due to socio-economic status, gender, ethnicity, language, religion, disability, and location are driving factors for inequality in education. It is this inequality that 100% for the Children, together with our partners in Kenya, Ghana and Malawi addresses. In our programs we work to reduce inequality in access to education for marginalized children and young people - especially girls and children with disabilities. At the same time, we work to ensure a higher quality of education, which strengthens the children’s abilities, talents, and personal development and prepares them for the future. This includes complementary educational paths like Life Skills and entrepreneurship.
100% for the Children works with the particularly vulnerable.
The organization was founded in 2008 by the chaos pilot and moving spirit Signe Møller. The year before she came to Mombasa, where she met children and families at the Kibarani landfill.
The approximately 3,000 families living in the area lived on top of the waste, under poor sanitary conditions. No NGO would act at the time. But Signe would. The meeting with the families inspired her to make a difference and that is why she started the organization.
Over the years, we have learned that empowerment begins with the right to decide. Children and young people living in poor, vulnerable, or marginalized communities in Kenya, Ghana, and Malawi lack adequate resources and face systemic discrimination. They lack choices. Meanwhile, climate change hinders any positive development in marginalized communities.
This is why 100% for the Children is committed to breaking cycles of poverty and discrimination, ensuring that the children and young people we work with have the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their circumstances.
We work with the particularly vulnerable. This includes children and young people from poor and marginalized families, children with disabilities, children from rural areas, and teenage girls who become pregnant.
Our solutions: Sustainable development is best achieved when people themselves are empowered to drive change. We join forces with local organizations to form alliances on joint advocacy, sharing of knowledge, and a readiness to take action.
We decide on our methods according to:
- Biggest impact
- Inclusive & contextual approach
- Transparency
