The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), a special program of the United Nations, is
devoted to aiding national efforts to improve the health, nutrition, education, and general welfare of
children.
UNICEF was created in 1946 to provide relief to children in countries devastated by World War II.
After 1950 the fund directed its efforts toward general programs for the improvement of children’s
welfare, particularly in less-developed countries and in various emergency situations. The
organization’s broader mission was reflected in the name it adopted in 1953, the United Nations
Children’s Fund. UNICEF was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1965. It is headquartered in
New York City.
UNICEF has concentrated much of its effort in areas in which relatively small expenditures
can have a significant impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged children such as the prevention
and treatment of diseases. In keeping with this strategy, UNICEF supports immunization programs
for childhood diseases and programs to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS; it also provides funding for
health services, educational facilities, and other welfare services. Since 1996 UNICEF programs
have been guided by the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), which affirms the right of all
children to “the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health and to facilities for the
treatment of illness and rehabilitation of health”. UNICEF’s activities are financed by both
government and private contributions.
