2026 Hope in Action Forum Pre-Registration

Worship – Connect – Learn – Plan – Act 

European Forum for a World Without Orphans: Bucharest, Romania

March 10–13, 2026 

World Without Orphans Europe warmly invites you to "Hope in Action," a forum specifically designed for individuals and organizations dedicated to supporting vulnerable children, families, and orphans across Europe. 

Conflict and crisis fill our headlines these days, but God offers hope for those in distress and calls us to action. WWO Europe has been called to bring love and justice to vulnerable children through collaborative efforts. Join us at our upcoming forum as we gather to advance our mission of providing a safe and loving family for every child.

Hope in Action will highlight areas that the WWO Europe team is currently working on with national "Without Orphans" teams and their leaders. We'll learn from experts and each other, engage in meaningful discussions, and create plans and commitments to put into action after the forum—whether on our own, within our organisations and churches, or together with our partners. 

At this gathering, we will unite in prayer, seek spiritual refreshment, dream boldly, and plan together to respond with greater impact to this call.
