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 Penicillinwas 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 sponsorshipscreate 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.
