UNICEF works in 190 countries and territories to protect the rights of every child. UNICEF has spent 70 years working to improve the lives of children and their families. Defending children's rights throughout their lives requires a global presence, aiming to produce results and understand their effects. UNICEF believes all children have a right to survive, thrive and fulfill their potential – to the benefit of a better world. For every child,a future.
There are currently 1.8 billion young people around the World. Although the demographics change from country to country across East Asia and the Pacific (with some countries having as many as 50% under the age of 18), the potential this group represents as "torchbearers of the SDGs" has been well highlighted. UNICEF's recently released Adolescent and Youth Engagement Strategic Framework underlines the great potential of working with youth globally, in the context of the SDGs. This position aims to catapult our work and partnerships in this domain in the region, with an entrepreneurial approach and with networks that will help identify opportunities to empower and unleash the potential of girls and boys in this age group.
