The Private Fundraising and Partnerships Plan supports the UNICEF Strategic Plan 2018–2021 and other organizational strategies and frameworks. In implementing this Plan, National Committees, UNICEF country offices and headquarters divisions will work together to expand strategic engagement with the private sector and advocate to advance child rights. Knowledge-sharing, supported by collaborative tools and mechanisms to optimize the use and exchange of information and experience, is one of the key crosscutting enabling strategies in the Plan.
