For every child, resilience
In Honduras, UNICEF supports the creation and development of national programs and policies for children.
The promotion and fulfillment of these rights are related to women´s rights, which is why UNICEF also works to promote their equality, free from all types of discrimination.
UNICEF works with the State, civil society organizations, the private sector, churches, and the media, among others, to promote national and international commitments that the principles enunciated in the Convention become a reality.
UNICEF’s budget depends entirely on voluntary funds. States provide two-thirds of the resources; foundations, the private sector, other private entities and some six million individual donors provide the rest.
UNICEF was created in 1946 by the United Nations to help the children of Europe who suffered the severe consequences of World War II.
