About UNICEF
UNICEF helps children receive the support, healthcare and education they need to survive the threats of childhood poverty - such as preventable disease or malnutrition - and grow up to become healthy adults.
We encourage families to educate girls as well as boys, so both men and women can play a full role in family life and broader society.
We strive to protect children from violence and abuse, and from exploitation through child labour or trafficking. We also protect children in the midst of war and natural disasters and provide emergency assistance, usually within 48 hours.
We strive to educate and care for children affected or orphaned by the HIV/AIDS pandemic and campaign globally for affordable, improved drug treatments for children. Our first global campaign "Unite for children, Unite against AIDS" was launched in 2005. We also undertake research into the reality of life for children worldwide and work with governments and other partners to improve life for children through policy changes.
UNICEF supports young people, wherever they are, in making informed decisions about their own lives, and strives to build a world in which all children live in dignity and security.
Working with national governments, NGOs (non-governmental organisations), other United Nations agencies and private-sector partners, UNICEF protects children and their rights by providing services and supplies and by helping shape policy agendas and budgets in the best interests of children.
