Teaming up to turn the tide against malnutrition in Niger
Following failed rains and poor harvests Niger is now in the midst of its third nutrition crisis since 2005. But this time, humanitarian experts and government officials are optimistic that Niger’s communities will be able to withstand the food crisis better than in prior years. UNICEF has been supporting local companies to produce and supply ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) from within the country itself. With local suppliers UNICEF can now access lifesaving RUTF to help malnourished children faster than ever before.

Syrian refugee children struggle to come to terms with violence in their homeland
In a house outside Antakya in southern Turkey, parents fleeing the violence in Syria have set up a makeshift school for their children. For children, it’s the beginning of a new normality as the carnage grinds on in their homeland. But the school’s headmaster says many of the school’s 196 children are struggling to come to terms with the violence and loss, and that more assistance is urgently needed to help them reclaim their future. The children’s psychological state is especially tenuous, after having witnessed so much violence.

The Child Survival Revolution 2.0
Since 1970 global under-five deaths have fallen by more than 54%. Still 21,000 children die every day from preventable causes. UNICEF and partners are standing at the cusp of a new child survival revolution to leverage powerful new interventions to help every child achieve the milestone of a fifth birthday. Once children reach age five, they are far more likely to survive to adulthood. Join us to help more children achieve their fifth birthday.
