UNICEF

United Nation International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) is the driving force that helps build a world where the rights of every child are realized. They have the global authority to influence decision-makers, and a variety of partners at grassroots level to turn the most innovative ideas into reality.  That makes them unique among world organizations, and unique among those working with the young.

UNICEF is a part of the Global Movement for Children – a broad coalition dedicated to improving the life of every child. Through this movement, and events such as the United Nations Special Session on Children, UNICEF encourages young people to speak out and participate in the decisions that affect their lives.
