Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally

UNICEF is the driving force that helps build a world where the rights of every child are realized. We have the global authority to influence decision-makers, and the variety of partners at grassroots level to turn the most innovative ideas into reality. That makes us unique among world organizations, and unique among those working with the young.
I’ am sure this would be my first choice to work. The United Nations International Children’s Fund is big business. UNICEF is a great partnership for any organization and community of practice. I would want to work here because UNICEF is the world’s most known organization fighting for children and feeding families all over the world. UNICEF provides emergency food and healthcare to children that live in places in the world where human survival is a challenge every day.

  1. UNICEF is doing great work on behalf of children, what was especially meaningful for me after reviewing what you presented and their website was what they are doing to learn why children stop learning and with this they are placing a renewed focus on research and the use of this data as they believe that “better data” will lead to better policy by providing evidence for action, investment, and accountability (UNICEF, 2014). Here in America our children have a right to education that for many children in other countries are lucky to have UNICEF fighting to allow them to realize those rights.

  2. Thanks for your response to my post. I take favor to UNICEF because of their work with children, and the fact that employ people in specific areas where people are widely needed. And UNICEF deals with early childhood diversities
