The State of the World's Children 1992

Category : Child health services
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Over the last ten years, The State of the World's Children report from UNICEF has become the best-known and most widely used of all United Nations publications. Published in over thirty languages, it is distributed to media in all countries at year's end, and has become both a record and a catalyst of the movement to promote the kind of development that most benefits today's children--and tomorrow's world. The 1992 report describes what it would take and cost to meet the basic needs of all the world's children--for food and water, health care and education--by the end of the century. Following the 1990 World Summit for Children, at which the largest gathering in history of heads of state promised a new deal for children in the decade ahead, the report sets out the action now needed--by the governments and peoples of both rich and poor nations--if that promise is to be kept.

Book Description
Celebrating UNICEF's 50th anniversary in 1996, Children First examines changes in public attitudes and government policies which have put children at the top of the international agenda in the 1990s. Starting from the International Year of the Child in 1979, development historian Maggie Black studies the two movements which have done most to raise the visibility of children in the public consciousness: - the child survival campaign, which culminated in the 1990 World Summit for Children - the movement for children's rights, which resulted in the 1989 International Convention on the Rights of the Child, now ratified by 177 countries.Children First explores what brought these two movements such unprecedented success, and asks: Is this new found concern for the world's children likely to last?
