Sharing Web Resources



UNICEF is the leading advocate for children’s rights. UNICEF focus on 5 areas, that include child survival & development, education & gender equalities, HIV/AIDS, child protection policy and advocacy & partnerships.

Child survival and Development includes child survival, nutrition, and environmental interventions.

Basic education and gender equalities include free education for all students.

HIV/AIDS include research for mother-to-child transmission, pediatric treatment and prevention and children affected by AIDS.

Child Protection which covers protecting children from violence, exploitation, and abuse.

Policy advocacy and partnerships which includes policy analysis, leveraging resources, and child participation.

It was interesting to read about the fight for equality in education. It was shocking to read that there are still such issues. UNICEF aims to close the gender gap in primary and secondary education.
