ABOUT UNICEF

UNICEF is the United Nations Children's Fund 

For over 70 years, we've been working to protect the rights of children in over 190 countries and territories around the world.

No other organisation has UNICEF's experience, expertise and reach.

Every child is born with fundamental human rights, but conflict, disease, exploitation and poor education keep millions of children from reaching their full potential. UNICEF fights for every child's right to survive and thrive into adulthood.  

UNICEF's mission is to create a better world, by advocating for the protection of children's rights. To do this, we bring people together: governments, donors, humanitarian agencies, businesses and children themselves. 

This is what UNICEF does, every day, for all children around the world. We want health, education, a fair go and protection, for every child.
