The Private Fundraising and Partnerships Plan sets out the results and strategies that UNICEF will pursue to maximize resources and leverage the influence of the private sector, defined as the general public, civil society, business and private foundations and other social groups that influence decision-makers. The Private Fundraising and Partnerships Plan supports the UNICEF Strategic Plan 2022-2025 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. Internal Communication and Knowledge Management play as critical role in connecting National Committees, Private Sector Fundraising country offices with the latest strategies, initiatives, campaigns, knowledge products and tools to help them do their work to raise resources, support, and engagement for UNICEF’s universal mandate to protect the rights of every child. Knowledge sharing, and internal communication are supported by tools and mechanisms in our digital workplace to optimize the use and exchange of information, one of the key crosscutting enabling strategies in the Plan.
UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
And we never give up.
For every child, hope
