Does UNICEF just work with children?
No, UNICEF works with governments, non-government organisations, community organisations, local committees and families, as well as children themselves, in order to improve the lives of both children and their communities. The focus of UNICEF’s work is children, but many of the improvements made for children ultimately improve the lives of others in their families and communities. For example, our maternal health projects that help mothers survive childbirth will ensure that children grow up with the support of their mothers.
