Today’s Children. Tomorrow’s Hope.

Maestral International’s mission is to provide cutting-edge, relevant and effective technical expertise that helps communities and nations to protect children from violence, abuse, exploitation and neglect, while ensuring that all of their children are cared for in safe and appropriate family or alternative care settings. We envision a world where every child is able to reach his or her full potential. Working with a wide range of partners, we join forces to promote the achievement of all children’s best interests.

Child well-being is a cornerstone of sustainable development, driving the long-term prosperity and security of communities and nations. Research consistently demonstrates that when children are protected, they achieve better health and education outcomes, earn higher incomes, and contribute more robustly to economic growth and poverty reduction. Conversely, adverse childhood experiences are closely linked to violence, extremism, social instability, and the root causes of migration. At Maestral, we champion policies and programs that prioritize the youngest and most vulnerable, delivering measurable economic and social returns that compound over time.
