UNICEF
Presentation by:
Amandla K. Stanley
UNICEF was originally known as the
United Nations International
Children’s
Emergency Fund.
UNICEF is now known as the United
Nations Children Fund.
UNICEF was founded in
December 1946 after World War II.
The whole World, especially children
were in need of assistance.
UNICEF provides
Aid without Discrimination
Providing Penicillin
was one of their accomplishments
In the 1950s the World Health Organization (WHO)
recognized that Sub-Saharan Africa and India had
among the highest rates of Tuberculosis across the
World.
UNICEF believes that
Children’s healthcare begins
with maternal care.
Clean Water is also critical
Clean Water 2012
Mo Money Mo Problems!
As a sub group of the United Nations
their records are public
Fundraising has been critical for their
operation since the 1950s
These
Fundraisers
still exist
today!
UNICEF has several partnerships,
many are corporate and on the
International Level
Some corporate sponsorships
create controversy
“I was not made cheery this morning when
at the grocery store, I found UNICEF’s name
and logo plastered all over the packages of
Halloween candy.”
-Professor Amir Attaran of the Law and
Medicine Faculties at the University of
Ottawa
Nobel Peace Prize?
Not Quite…
“A good deal of the controversy surrounding
UNICEF comes primarily and directly from [their]
policy of supplying and distributing
contraceptives. Many contraceptives are, in
reality, abortifacients.”

Burkina Faso, 2012: UNICEF and partners celebrate Global Handwashing Day annually on 15 October to underscore the importance of
handwashing with soap – a simple, but life-saving, act of good hygiene. Handwashing with water alone is not sufficient to destroy many
disease-causing pathogens, including those causing diarrhoea and pneumonia, two leading killers of children. Women wash the hands
of twin girls before a meal, in Plateau-Central Region.
