Tackling childhood nutrition in Vanuatu
UNICEF is on the ground in Vanuatu, working to tackle the growing malnutrition crisis that threatens the health of the country’s children.
Why partner with UNICEF?
In a world full of uncertainty and unpredictability, investing in real impact is more important than ever.
At UNICEF Australia, real impact comes from working with communities within existing systems - from grassroots partners to all levels of government - to ensure the programs you invest in are set up to be sustainable.
We seek guidance from local communities and together we co-design programs. Most of our implementing partners are local or national non-government organisations. By working with these local partners and collaborating with policy makers, we build capacity and scale up programs to the point that they are sustainable - to the point where we are no longer needed.
This way of working means we tackle the challenges that matter, with appropriate responses of benefit to the greatest number of children. As a result, your contribution goes even further. Your investment will make a difference for children today and in the future.
We look forward to partnering with you on your philanthropic journey.

If you’re looking to make a lasting difference, the question isn’t, 'Where should I give?', the question is, 'Who do I trust to deliver, to listen and to share the journey with me?'.
At UNICEF Australia, we’re here to be your partner in creating lasting change for every child. With team members across Australia, we'll connect you with your local philanthropy manager.
We would love to hear from you.
