Unicef's partners
UNICEF works with a full range of partners in Angola, and it is some of these partners that play the vital role of actually implementing its program activities in communities throughout the country. UNICEF’s partners include: • National technical departments, including health professionals, nutritionists, educators, water and sanitation experts and social workers; UNICEF works within the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) to strengthen partnerships and joint programming between UNICEF and other United Nations agencies. Since UNICEF is funded exclusively by voluntary contributions, donors are also a crucial component of its work in Angola. UNICEF activities are funded by governments, the private sector and individuals around the globe who support its work through National Committees for UNICEF such as the German, British, North American, Dutch, Canadian and Italian. Major donors include the governments of Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States as well as the European Commission. Partnership with the World Bank is expected to grow concerning a number of social-sector projects under preparation. In Angola both local and international media are an important ally of UNICEF in mobilizing public opinion and political will. Elections announced for September of 2006 give UNICEF during the current year the political opportunity to further work with key Angolan players and encourage all to become allies of children, focusing on the full realisation of child rights.
