About UN jobs-Chief Health and Nutrition
Promoting the rights of every child, everywhere is UNICEF’s primary goal in all of its endeavors, including its operations, advocacy, and programmatic work. In another hand, This dedication to children’s rights translates into action through the equity strategy, which places a special emphasis on the most underprivileged and marginalized families and children. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias, or favoritism.
Any child’s rights violates to the extent that they have an unequal opportunity at life in its social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions. There is mounting evidence that reducing inequality by investing in the health, education, and safety of a society’s most vulnerable members will not only allow all children to reach their full potential but also result in sustained economic growth and political stability. The emphasis on equity is crucial because of this. It supports the equitable development of nations and expedites the realization of all children’s human rights, which is UNICEF’s worldwide mandate and establishes in the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
