We believe in the power and potential of every child, but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected. Working together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of challenges children face. We're there from birth until adulthood, and we support children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity, while particularly focusing on the experience of girls. We drive changes in practice and policy at the local, national and global levels using our reach, expertise and knowledge. With more than 85 years of experience, we work to transform lives in over 80 countries. We won't stop until we are all equal. We center our work around seven key impact areas: Youth empowerment; Inclusive, quality education; Early childhood development; Skills and work; Emergencies; Protection from violence; and Sexual and reproductive health and rights.
