Since 1950, its work has expanded to meet the long-term needs of children and mothers in all developing countries around the world. In 1953, UNICEF became a permanent member of the United Nations system and was commissioned by UN General Assembly to realize the right to survive, develop, protect and participate in mothers, infants and children across the world.
In 1959, the United Nations General Assembly promoted the adoption of the " Declaration on the Rights of the Children" and in 1965, UNICEF won the Nobel Peace Prize for "promoting brotherhood among countries." In 1989, " Convention on the Rights of the Child" was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly and came into effect in September 1990, becoming the most widely accepted human rights treaty in history.
War is fierce, and people are always suffering. How many children will lose their families and their relatives in this war? May there be no war in the world!
