UNICEF is committed to UN80 reforms.
A key measure of success is clear: will they improve outcomes for children.
UNICEF appreciates the leadership of the #GroupOfFriends. Together, we keep children at the heart of all UN reform discussions.
Ambassador @GuerKaradjova joined fellow co-chairs #Jamaica and #Luxembourg and @UNICEF to advance the work of the Group of Friends of Children and the SDGs.
Focused discussions on the Group's growth, 2026 priorities, and stronger coordination across UN processes.
Delighted to meet with Ambassadors of Bulgaria, Jamaica & Luxembourg on 2026 priorities for the Group of Friends on Children & SDGs, and reflect on our strategic engagement.
Looking forward to advancing outcomes for children together.
UNICEF is grateful for Sweden’s extraordinary public & private support for children in need across Gaza.
This lifesaving assistance thanks to @SweMFA, #Akelius & @Postkodlott through @unicefsverige will provide children in Gaza with vital health, learning & psychosocial support.
In the DR Congo, a new escalation of violence in Goma has tragically resulted in the death of one of our UNICEF colleagues.
We, along with UNICEF, extend our deepest condolences to her family, her friends and her colleagues.
Humanitarian personnel must never be a target.
Grateful to the Group of Friends of Children and the #SDGs for their statement at #COP30 calling for climate action that puts children, their rights and the systems they rely on at the centre. Read it here:https://t.co/PpJbEWiLqA

Funding cuts by numerous donor countries will limit UNICEF’s ability to reach millions of children in dire need.
UNICEF implores all donors to continue to fund critical aid programs for the world’s children.
We cannot fail them now.👇 https://t.co/rxdDZmkHEK
I wish to thank @UNICEF and the Group of Friends of Children and the #SDGs for inviting me to speak today at the UNICEF House.
As we prepare to mark the 80th anniversary of these United Nations next year, we must recommit to our founding legacy to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war and from all other suffering.
With determination, without delay, undeterred.
Let us intensify our efforts to protect and promote children’s rights.
Let us amplify the voices of children and youth, recognizing them as vital agents of positive change.

Yesterday, we launched our new report at a side event during the Second PrepCom Session on Financing for Development. During crises, it’s vital to safeguard child rights and align humanitarian, development, and climate finance. Learn more: https://t.co/gW7qOQ1HjU #FfD4
At the PrepConf for FFD-IV, @UNICEFSocPolicy launched its report, Finance for Children in Fragile and Humanitarian Settings. We call on partners to prioritize enhancing risk informed financing mechanisms to protect social spending in complex contexts.

The Summit of the Future has started.
@UNICEF we live and breathe the future.
We ensure children survive and thrive, and we equip them with the skills, tools and resources to participate in, and lead the world towards, a more inclusive, sustainable future.

Flexible funding is key to reaching every child.

Kicking off #HLPF2024 with a candid conversation on #childrights and @UNICEF’s mission for #everychild.
