Description:
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is mandated by the United Nations General Assembly to advocate for the protection of children's rights, help meet their basic needs and expand their opportunities to reach their full potential. In countries experiencing humanitarian crises, UNICEF fulfills its mandate through humanitarian assistance programming activities outlined under the Humanitarian Action for Children appeal and guided by its Core Commitments for Children.
With GAC’s support, UNICEF provides life-saving health and nutrition interventions for children and pregnant and lactating women to support the treatment, growth, and development of healthy children. Project activities include: (1) providing ready-to-use therapeutic food to treat severe acute malnutrition and child wasting; (2) providing community-based health care services to identify and treat malnutrition; (3) supporting complementary nutrition activities that are essential to deliver effective nutrition programming. This includes ante and post-natal care, infant and young child feeding counselling and support, cash-based interventions for pregnant and lactating women, nutrition supplementation, and deworming and malaria control.
