UNICEF is the driving force that helps build a
world where the rights of every child are realized. We have the
global authority to influence
decision-makers, and the variety of partners at grassroots level to turn the
most innovative ideas into reality. That makes us unique among world
organizations, and unique among those working with the young.
We believe that nurturing and caring for children are the cornerstones of human progress. UNICEF was created with this purpose in mind – to work with others to overcome the obstacles that poverty, violence, disease and discrimination place in a child’s path. We believe that we can, together, advance the cause of humanity.

We advocate for measures to give children the best start in life, because
proper care at the youngest age forms the strongest foundation for a person’s
future.
