The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programmes, in advocacy, and in operations. The equity strategy, which emphasizes the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have the opportunity to survive, develop, and reach their full potential without discrimination, bias, or favoritism. To the extent that any child faces unequal chances in life — in social, political, economic, civic, and cultural dimensions — their rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education, and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only provides all children with the opportunity to fulfil their potential but also promotes sustained growth and stability in countries. This focus on equity is vital as it accelerates progress toward realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
