PARMO’s vision is to influence aid policies and mobilize quality resources from the public sector for children and women.
PARMO’s mission As an active participant in UN system-wide coherence, PARMO seeks to position UNICEF as a knowledge broker and partner of choice in leading the collective commitment towards achievement of results for children and women.
