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.

For every child, _hope_**- As the effects of climate change, prolonged and violent conflict and displacement persist, UNICEF continues to respond to an unprecedented number of humanitarian crises across the world, - in 2023, UNICEF is responding to emergencies in 155 countries and territories, with a funding requirement of $10.3 billion. As at October 2023, UNICEF is responding to 5 L3 emergencies (Haiti, Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Polio and Cholera outbreaks and Haiti) response, and 6 L2 emergencies (Ethiopia, Ukraine, Yemen, Sahel Crisis, Afghanistan and Eastern Chad).

The need for bespoke fundraising assets to position our humanitarian responses and needs with the private sector is crucial, as we seek to raise much needed financial and non-financial support.

Over the last couple of years, we have seen quite incredible traction from the propositions that have been produced for the private sector fundraisers e.g., for Ukraine, HoA, Türkiye and Syria earthquake response etc.

and from which we are building on strategically to unlock funding for emergencies more equitably.

How can you make a difference?
