About ICRM

International Child Rights Ministry (ICRM) is a global-focused ministry whose primary aim is to help, defend, advocate and ensure that children everywhere can reach their full potential.

‘Overcoming Poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice’

Nelson Mandela

Our Mission

Our mission is to empower and protect children worldwide by advocating for their rights and providing support, education, and resources to ensure their well-being. We believe that every child deserves a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment to grow up in, free from abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Through partnerships with local communities, governments, and other organisations, we seek to create sustainable solutions that address the root causes of child rights violations. Our goal is to give a voice to the voiceless and ensure that children everywhere can reach their full potential.

ICRM is there to speak up and support vulnerable children who live in destitute conditions, those who cannot speak for themselves, and whose rights are being deprived because of the various social injustices they face.

Our Purpose


The purpose of ICRM is to protect, promote and empower the rights of children within and across communities. We strive to ensure that children are treated with love, dignity, respect, and compassion. We aim to serve as a voice for children who are often marginalised, exploited and abused. ICRM thrives at empowering deprived children to become agents of positive change. Through advocacy, education, and outreach, we seek to create a world where all children thrive and reach their full potential. ICRM is committed to working with children, families, local communities, governments, and other organisations to create sustainable solutions that promote child well-being.

Our Values


The ICRM values are to defend the rights of children living in destitute circumstances. ICRM values are designated as DECREASE (Defence, Equity, Caring, Rescuing, Educating, Advocating, Safeguarding and Empowering). By promoting equity, caring for children’s needs, rescuing children from adverse situations, educating children on their rights, advocating for children’s voices to be heard, safeguarding children’ wellbeing, and empowering children to lead self-determined lives, ICRM decreases children’s injustices. ICRM thrives to create a world where every child matters regardless of their defining characteristics (race, gender, faith, disability, ethnicity etc). ICRM believes that by working together, children’s rights are respected and recognised.
