What is UNICEF? We are an agency of the United
Nations that is devoted to the world’s children. The UN General Assembly organized
UNICEF on 11 December 1946 to assist children victims of World War II. In
1953, our mandate was broadened to respond to the long-term needs of
children in developing countries like the Philippines where the effects of
poverty are often hardest on children.
Guided by the
Convention on the
Rights of the Child, UNICEF works in more than 160 countries,
territories, and areas to promote and fulfill children’s rights to health
and nutrition, education, protection, emergency relief, water and
sanitation, and participation.
What does UNICEF do?
We started our work in the Philippines in
November 1948 as one of the first UNICEF offices in Asia. We provided
milk, medicines, and other essential supplies. In 1979, we shifted from
mere emergency response work to more elaborate country programming for
children.
We are currently supporting the Sixth Country
Program for Children (CPC 6). We work with governments, non-governmental
organizations, religious groups, young people, business communities,
media, and children themselves.
What is CPC 6? the Child-Friendly Movement?
CPC 6 aims to make children’s rights a
reality for children in the Philippines. We are aiming to reduce the
disparities in the situation of children and women among communities. We
do this by promoting the Child-Friendly Movement. The Child-Friendly
Movement is the involvement of all sectors of society to promote and
protect children’s rights.
We support activities of the national
government and directly provide assistance to 19 provinces and five
cities. UNICEF hopes to make an impact in these areas.

IFAW- International Federation for Animal Welfare
The International Fund for Animal Welfare works to improve animal welfare, prevent animal cruelty and abuse, protect wildlife and provide animal rescue around the world. From stopping the elephant ivory trade, to ending the Canadian seal hunt and saving the whales from extinction, IFAW works to create solutions that benefit both animals and people.
From the outset, the founders of the International Fund for Animal Welfare, or IFAW, rejected the notion that the interests of humans and animals were separate. Instead they embraced the understanding that the fate and future of harp seals-and all other animals on Earth-are inextricably linked to our own.
IFAW's courageous actions drew international attention to the plight of the seal pups and successfully rallied worldwide condemnation of the hunt. Thanks to IFAW's continued vigilance, it is now illegal to hunt white coat seal pups for commercial purposes on the ice floes off Canada's east coast. This is a fragile victory, however, for Canada's commercial seal hunt persists. IFAW continues to document and expose abuses of the commercial hunt and press for an end to this cruel, unsustainable slaughter. Over the years, the small team of committed campaigners reaching out to help seals has grown to become the world's leading international animal welfare organization. IFAW begins its fourth decade of operation with more than 200 experienced campaigners, legal and political experts, and internationally acclaimed scientists working from offices in 15 countries around the world.
We are now joined in this important work by some two million contributors worldwide. This broad base of support makes it possible for IFAW to engage communities, government leaders, and like-minded organizations around the world and achieve lasting solutions to pressing animal welfare and conservation challenges-solutions that benefit both animals and people. Over the years, our approach has been as varied as the species we protect.
