Climate Officer

UNICEF is the only organization mandated by the United Nations General Assembly to safeguard the rights of all children everywhere. That mandate is rooted in the 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which sets out universal and indivisible rights.

UNICEF has been working in Cambodia since 1952 to protect the rights of children

UNICEF promotes the rights and well-being of every child in everything it does. Together with our partners, we work to translate this commitment into practical action, with a dedicated effort to reach the most vulnerable and excluded girls and boys in urban and rural poor areas of Cambodia. We focus on equity, so our achievements benefit all children.
