Mission and objectives
La misión fundamental de UNICEF es la de promover los derechos de los niños y niñas en todo aquello que la organización realiza en su vertiente programática u operacional. La estrategia de la equidad, que pone el énfasis en orientar recursos a los niños, niñas y las familias más desaventajadas y excluidas, es la que traduce este compromiso de UNICEF por los derechos del niño. Para UNICEF, la equidad significa que un niño tiene la oportunidad de sobrevivir, desarrollar y alcanzar su pleno potencial sin discriminación. Hay cada vez más datos que confirman que las inversiones en la salud, la educación y la protección de los ciudadanos más desaventajados de una sociedad, no solo ayudan al niño a desarrollar su potencial, pero contribuyen igualmente al desarrollo social y al crecimiento sostenible de los países. Por ello la focalización en la equidad es tan importante, ya que permite por un lado acelerar el progreso de los derechos de todos los niños, lo cual se sitúa en el centro del mandato de UNICEF y que se sustenta en la Convención de los Derechos de los Niños, y por otro lado ayuda al desarrollo con equidad de las naciones.
