Mission and objectivesLa misiรณn fundamental de UNICEF es la de promover los derechos de los niรฑos y niรฑas en todo aquello que la organizaciรณn realiza en su vertiente programรกtica u operacional. La estrategia de la equidad, que pone el รฉnfasis en orientar recursos a los niรฑos, niรฑas y las familias mรกs desaventajadas y excluidas, es la que traduce este compromiso de UNICEF por los derechos del niรฑo. Para UNICEF, la equidad significa que un niรฑo tiene la oportunidad de sobrevivir, desarrollar y alcanzar su pleno potencial sin discriminaciรณn. Hay cada vez mรกs datos que confirman que las inversiones en la salud, la educaciรณn y la protecciรณn de los ciudadanos mรกs desaventajados de una sociedad, no solo ayudan al niรฑo a desarrollar su potencial, pero contribuyen igualmente al desarrollo social y al crecimiento sostenible de los paรญses. Por ello la focalizaciรณn en la equidad es tan importante, ya que permite por un lado acelerar el progreso de los derechos de todos los niรฑos, lo cual se sitรบa en el centro del mandato de UNICEF y que se sustenta en la Convenciรณn de los Derechos de los Niรฑos, y por otro lado ayuda al desarrollo con equidad de las naciones. UNICEF trabaja en Venezuela desde 1967, ampliando progresivamente su apoyo tras la apertura de una Oficina de UNICEF en el paรญs y la firma del primer acuerdo de cooperaciรณn entre Venezuela y UNICEF en 1991. UNICEF trabaja en colaboraciรณn con las autoridades nacionales y subnacionales nacionales y subnacionales, la sociedad civil, el mundo acadรฉmico y el sector privado.
