UNICEF's priorities for children 2002-2005

UNICEF has committed its resources to achieving results for children in the following five priority areas: -We will work to ensure that every girl and every boy completes a quality primary school education …. -We will work to promote integrated early childhood development, ensuring every child the best possible start in life …. -We will work to safeguard every child against disease and disability, emphasizing immunization ‘plus’…. -We will work to stop the spread of HIV/AIDS and ensure that children and young people already affected by the disease are cared for …. -And we will work to protect every child so that all children can grow up free from violence, exploitation, abuse and discrimination …. We will maintain our focus on these five priorities in all circumstances including conflicts, emergencies and natural disasters. And, throughout the organization, we will link our daily activities and our planning to achieving specific goals for children in these five areas.
