Those who contemplate the beauty of the Earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. Rachel Carson

The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it. Robert Swan

The earth will not continue to offer its harvest, except with faithful stewardship. We cannot say we love the land and then take steps to destroy it for use by future generations. Pope John Paul II

UNICEF: An Unstoppable Force for Change in the Lives of Our Precious Children Around the World...

Since the UN International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) was first established in the aftermath of World War II, these wonderful people have been at the frontlines of humanitarian crises, armed conflict and natural disasters. Undeterred by the scale of the crises, they have risen to every challenge, reimagining what is possible and responding by helping millions of children survive and thrive. Their on-the-ground expertise has reached more than 191 countries and territories, through committed partnerships and a passion for innovation (UNICEF, 2022).

For 75+ years, UNICEF has been working tirelessly for child rights and for the well-being of every child. UNICEF is the world’s largest provider of vaccines, and supports children's health and nutrition, safe water and sanitation, quality education and skill building, HIV prevention and treatment for mothers and babies, and the protection of children and adolescents from violence and exploitation.

The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns about the mental health of a generation of children. But the pandemic may represent the tip of a mental health iceberg – an iceberg we have ignored for far too long (UNICEF, 2021).
The State of the World’s Children 2021 examines child, adolescent and caregiver mental health. It focuses on risks and protective factors at critical moments in the life course and delves into the social determinants that shape mental health and well-being. It calls for commitment, communication and action as part of a comprehensive approach to promote good mental health for every child, protect vulnerable children and care for children facing the greatest challenges (UNICEF, 2021).
