UNICEF Canada aims to provide every child with the chance to be a kid and stay a kid for as long as they can. Founded in 1955, we are one of 33 National Committees located in countries around the world. UNICEF Canada is guided by the 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child - advocating for the protection of childrenâs rights; helping to meet their basic needs; and giving them a fair chance to reach their full potential.
UNICEF is the worldâs farthest-reaching humanitarian organization for children. Across 190 countries and territories, and in the worldâs toughest places, we work day in and day out to help children survive. To defend their rights.
