UNICEF South Africa
What is UNICEF?
UNICEF, the United Nations Children’s Fund, works in over 190 countries and territories to save children’s lives, defend their rights and help them fulfil their potential, from early childhood through adolescence.
In South Africa, UNICEF works with the Government of South Africa, civil society, the private sector, and children and young people themselves so that the most vulnerable children grow up in a safer and more equitable environment, with a fair chance in life.
