Let Children Live
Every child is beloved by God. Every child deserves to live.
Let Children Live is a global campaign calling for urgent action to protect the 2.38 million Palestinian children living under Israel’s occupation, which the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has declared unlawful. Gaza has become the deadliest place in the world for children, with thousands killed and many more facing starvation, displacement, and trauma. We refuse to let these children become statistics — we honor their names, their lives, and their right to a future.
When you register, you will receive the first name of a Palestinian child to represent in your advocacy. Share their name on social media, bring it to a demonstration, or organize your own event. Use #LetChildrenLive to stand in solidarity and amplify this urgent call for justice.
Together, we demand:
- Stop killing, harming, and starving Palestinian children
- Lift the blockade on Gaza
- End Israel’s unlawful occupation
This campaign was initiated by Save the Children Norway and Amnesty International Norway and is supported by a global coalition of faith communities, humanitarian organizations, unions, and civil society partners — including Global Ministries.
A name. A child. A right to live — and to a future. Let children live.

More About Let Children Live
When you register, you’ll receive the first name of one Palestinian child to represent. Each name is unique. It represents a life and a future we must protect. Each has a right to grow up in safety and live a life free from bombs, starvation, violence, discrimination, and injustice.
We ask you to share the name on social media and bring it to demonstrations near you. Protests have been, and are still, happening around the world. Tag your actions with #letchildrenlive to share with the world. We want the names of Palestinian children to be visible all across the world until our demands are heard.
This campaign is a bold reminder that international law, justice, and human dignity are not optional — they are non-negotiable.
About the list of names
According to data provided by the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), by the end of 2024, approximately 2.38 million Palestinian children were living in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). The list of names being used for this campaign was provided by the Palestinian authorities and currently consists of 1.2 million registered names of Palestinian children in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
Amnesty and Save the Children will not be able to provide any updates on individual children. The list was last updated in August 2025. The mass killings of civilians and the inhuman conditions of life and other atrocities imposed by Israeli authorities mean that, by the time you receive this list, some of these children may have been killed.
Together, we will raise our voices for all Palestinian children living under Israel’s occupation, declared unlawful by the ICJ, Israeli blockade, and ongoing atrocities – and whose lives the world cannot ignore.
