Business Leadership Circle

UNICEF Oman established a Business Leadership Circle (BLC) in 2018 to engage more meaningfully with the private sector and key influencers to increase the impact of its work in Oman. The BLC currently has 15 members who play an influential, non-executive, advisory role. BLC members also advocate on UNICEFs behalf on key issues affecting children. In 2021, UNICEF is reinvigorating its work with the BLC and expanding its private sector engagement in pursuit of its Public Finance for Children (PF4C) work and youth agenda.
