The goal of We Are the Future (WAF) initiative is to mobilise global resources for the benefit of children in conflict and post-conflict cities through the creation of centres to develop and implement youth-led activities focused on five  essential areas of rehabilitation: Health, Nutrition, Arts, Sports and Information Communication and Technologies. The six  WAF pilot cities are Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), Asmara (Eritrea), Freetown (Sierra Leone), Kabul (Afghanistan), Kigali (Rwanda) and Nablus (Palestine).  The Nablus center works on peace building in partnership with Rishon Le’ Zion, Israel.

The primary outcome of the programme will be the development and implementation of comprehensive age and culturally specific youth services for orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) ages 0-6+ and youth (15-24) in order to promote a healthy start in life and improved living conditions.
