About UNICEF
UNICEF has been working in Bangladesh since 1952. Bangladesh, a country in South Asia, hosts a population of 160 million: 40 percent of which are children. UNICEF, the UN agency focused on children, provides support to youth facing challenges in this developing, but densely-populated nation. We reach out to communities in all 64 districts, through our field offices covering eight administrative divisions of Bangladesh.
Our programme for Bangladesh follows a life-cycle approach that addresses children’s needs as they pass from infancy to adolescence. The method relies on separate arms that unite for action, and they are: Education, Health, Nutrition, Child Protection, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, Community for Development, Communication, Advocacy and Partnerships and Emergency response.
UNICEF plans align with the Government of Bangladesh, our biggest partner, as it advances the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Our success in attaining equitable results for children relies heavily on collaborations with partners, donors, civil society organisations and local people.
