The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has warned about the consequences of rising child poverty, conflicts, climate crises, and cuts to funding for essential services and humanitarian assistance on children’s lives and futures.
On Sunday, November 15, UNICEF wrote on its X account that these factors are depriving children of the opportunity to have a better future.
In response to the ongoing situation, the organisation stressed that the deprivation and threats facing children must come to an end.
UNICEF added that children’s rights must be respected and protected every day through practical action and necessary investments.
The organisation emphasised the need for continued attention to children’s rights and ensuring that they have access to the services and resources they need.
