    Distinguished guests, fellow students, good morning and thank you all

    for joining us today. I am here before you as a Youth Ambassador to speak


    as an advocate of the UNICEF's Country Programme for Children.
    UNICEF is an agency of the United Nations devoted to serving the
    world's children, and has been providing assistance to the Philippines since
    1948.
    The UNICEF has more than 60 people working to promote and protect
    the rights of children in our country today, and to provide the best quality of
    life for every Filipino child through programmes that help them survive and
    flourish.
    This organization implement programmes covering education, health
    and nutrition, disaster risk reduction and emergencies, HIV and AIDS
    prevention, child protection, communication, and local policy and
    institutional development.
    In order to achieve these goals, UNICEF instituted the Country
    Programme for Children(CPC), wherein the organization partnered with the
    Philippine Government to eradicate, or at least alleviate existing social
    problems our children face today. Previous programmes achieved positive
    results: in fact, the UNICEF CPC of 2005-2015 was credited with the creation
    and development of various childrens rights networks and coalitions in the
    Philippines. On the legislative and policy front, UNICEF is credited with
    important contributions by providing key and timely technical, legal, financial
    and advocacy support. The law on child pornography was enacted in 2009,
    and other laws including on children affected by armed conflict, on the
    age of sexual consent and on corporal punishment were filed in Congress.
    The passage of the Juvenile Justice Welfare Act (2006), the implementing
    rules and regulations of the National Guidelines for the Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes (2007) and the Expanded Breastfeeding Promotion Act
    (2010) were reported as having had multiplier effects.
    With such impact on the quality of life of our children, the UNICEFs 7th
    Country Programme for Children seeks to achieve more. With the continued
    support of the government, and the unwavering aid of the LGUs and NGOs,
    this partnership shall provide a better, safer, and healthier environment, be it
    physical or social, for our children.
    Thank you.
