UNICEF is guided by the principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women in its continuing efforts to influence public policies in ways that prioritize children's needs, develop and assist programmes benefiting children, and stimulate public dialogue that may benefit children. This report explores and examines how these two human rights instruments, almost universally ratified, can be used as blueprints from which the world can craft a human development agenda that secures the rights of all.
