UNICEF is the United Nations Children's Fund, the world's leading advocate for children. UNICEF is non-political and works in over 150 countries to make a lasting difference to the lives of women and children around the world, and advocates for the health of Indigenous children in Central Australia.
UNICEF works with governments, law-makers, the media, international organisations and civil society to ensure that the fulfilment of children's rights is at the centre of global and national policy debates.
UNICEF's work is guided by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), a universally agreed set of standards which sets out the right of every child to reach their full potential.
UNICEF examines national and international policies to make sure that they are in line with the CRC, so that children's rights everywhere can be realised. Analysis of economic, social and legal policies also helps UNICEF have a greater understanding of the factors that affect the wellbeing of children around the world.
