WHS Unicef Club
One goal for the WHS UNICEF Club is to educate the public about what UNICEF at large does. To further this goal, we will be sharing the monthly mission in eNotes which highlights a different issue that UNICEF fights for. This is our first mission!
UNICEF’s Mission of the Month: Climate Change
Climate change is a worldwide problem that results in long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns such as frequent and intense droughts, storms, heat waves, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and warming oceans. These natural disasters and environmental issues are not only problems for our planet, but for everyone who lives on Earth too, especially for children when humanitarian action falls short. This brings us to UNICEF’s goal: to have a livable planet for every child.
At least 1 billion children face extreme risks to their ability to survive, grow, and thrive. To combat these issues, UNICEF focuses on climate action, disaster risk reduction and recovery, environmental action, and sustainable energy. With these goals in mind, the organization
Advocates with governments and business partners to put children and young people first in their sustainability plans, budgets and actions towards a green transition
Strengthens the resilience and continuity of social services to climate and environmental impacts, including humanitarian action in response to disasters.
Supports and empower children and young people to adapt and create a better world.
Aims to become sustainable within their own global programming, operations and supply chain.
The first step for everyone who wants to aid UNICEF, environmental scientists, and humanitarian aid workers is to educate yourself. To learn more about climate change and how you can help, click the following links!
