II. Organizational Context and Purpose for the job

The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in
everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy and in operations. The equity
strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this
commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an
opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or
favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political,
economic, civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing
evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged
citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their
potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on
equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which
is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child,
while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
