This post will provide support to the Child Protection Systems Strengthening Unit within the Child Protection Programme Team in New York.
UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
And we never give up.
UNICEF’s work for and with children and adolescents on the move is guided by UNICEF’s Agenda for Action for Children Uprooted, the Global Programme Framework on Children on the Move, and Core Commitments for Children in humanitarian action. UNICEF aims to address the root causes that uproot children, combat xenophobia and discrimination, and ensure inclusive access to basic services without discrimination based on a child’s migratory status. UNICEF works with UNHCR, IOM and other key stakeholders and networks such as the UN Migration Network to prevent and mitigate harmful migration practices, such as child immigration detention or family separation, and ensures migrant and displaced children are heard, involved and empowered to reach their potential.

UNICEF’s Strategic Plan (2022-2025) reflects children on the move across Goal Areas and as an important cross-cutting priority, supporting recent global commitments such as the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and Global Compact on Refugees. The new Strategic Plan commits UNICEF to a renewed focus on inclusion of children on the move into education, child protection and social protection systems to tackle root causes for forced displacement or unsafe migration, discrimination, and exclusion.
