Description
Assisting children involves providing targeted support to address their physical, emotional, educational, and social needs, particularly in situations of vulnerability or disadvantage. This strategy encompasses actions such as ensuring access to healthcare, nutrition, safe environments, and quality education, as well as protection from abuse and exploitation. The practical intent is to remedy barriers to healthy development, empower children to reach their full potential, and break cycles of poverty and neglect through direct intervention and resource provision.
Implementation
Following the 1990 World Summit for Children convened by UNICEF, more than 150 governments have committed to reaching over 20 specific measurable goals to radically improve children's lives by the year 2000.
