This is one section on the UNICEF website that is relevant to me.

Advocacy and Partnerships for Early Childhood Development: UNICEF states that Early Childhood Development requires collaboration and partnership across different sectors. Each development sector health, nutrition, child protection, education, water and sanitation has its own priorities, but each sector also has a significant role to play in the development of young children.  Each development partner is able to reach different communities through various methods and strengths

UNICEF is a strong believer in partnership and collaborative action.  It is only through successful partnerships that young children can be reached with services and support. To this end, UNICEF works with a wide range of stakeholders from governments, national and international non-governmental organizations, United Nations agencies, community and local organizations and individual families.  UNICEF's partnerships in early childhood development promote wider investment in young children, programs and the broader fulfillment of children’s rights.

Improving the health and nutrition of mothers-to-be and providing quality health services are a must to many underlying causes of child mortality. What happens or doesn’t happen to children in the earliest years of their lives is very importance, both to their immediate well-being as well as to their future.

I have gain more insights that if children received the best start in their earliest years of life, they may have more likely to have grown up healthily, developed learning capacities, went to school and probably would have led a productive and rewarding life. Yet there are millions of children around the world who is still being denied the right to these services reach. Every child must be ensured the best start in life, and indeed the future of their communities, nations and the whole world depends on it.
