The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is mandated by the United Nations General Assembly to advocate for the protection of children's rights, to help meet their basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential. UNICEF works in developing countries through its development and humanitarian assistance programming to fulfill its mandate, including promoting the equal rights of women and girls, and to support their full participation in the political, social, and economic development of their communities. In humanitarian emergencies, UNICEF’s project activities include: (1) providing people with access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities; (2) treating children for severe acute malnutrition; (3) providing emergency education programming for children; (4) ensuring protection services for children and women; and (5) providing basic healthcare.

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased access to safe drinking water, sanitation facilities and hygiene education; (2) increased access to services and commodities to identify and treat severe acute malnutrition, including for children under 5,and pregnant and lactating women; (3) increased school enrollment and attendance rate; (4) increased access to protection services, particularly for children and women,(5) improved access to gender-based violence risk mitigation, prevention or response interventions; and (6) increased access to basic health care services. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained for the populations experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
