Stay up to date on what UNICEF is doing around the world to help children survive to adulthood.
Silent Emergencies AppealThere are many emergencies which you rarely hear about, but which kill at least 30,000 children under five every day - lives which could be saved with simple measures.
Water and Sanitation AppealUNICEF is working to ensure every child has access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation facilities.
Child soldiers appealChild soldiers are exploited in more than 30 conflicts around the world. Help us give the formerly abducted their lives back.
Haiti Emergency AppealAfter a 7.3-magnitude earthquake devastated Haiti on January 12 last year, UNICEF continues to provide safe drinking water and immunise children under seven against tetanus, rubella, diphtheria, whooping cough and measles.
Preventing Malaria in Madagascar AppealMalaria kills over 17,000 children in Madagascar each year.
Maternal Health AppealEvery minute of every day a woman dies during pregnancy or childbirth, over 500,000 deaths every year. Yet the vast majority of these deaths can be prevented.
Malnutrition AppealMalnutrition in children increases dramatically and kills most rapidly in emergencies, like in Haiti where up to 1.75 million children are estimated to have been affected by the January earthquake.
HIV/AIDS AppealIn the time it takes you to read about UNICEF’s HIV/AIDS appeal, another 10 children will be infected by a killer. Yet, $1.50 worth of medicine can help save a child from HIV.
WASH for schools in Timor-LestePoor access to water and sanitation is one of the main causes of child malnutrition, which can lead to death.
