This report presents the progress and lessons learned from two years of new initiatives around the world that would not have been possible without the support of donors. The increase in thematic funding has allowed the area of Policy, Advocacy and Partnerships for Children’s Rights to work with much greater flexibility and responsiveness to country and global priorities (see box). In the pages that follow, examples from countries in every region will demonstrate how thematic funding to UNICEF’s nascent policy work is yielding results for children today, and laying the groundwork for transformational impacts in the future. In October 2004, a small gathering of UNICEF staff came together to collectively brainstorm how UNICEF could take its existing social policy initiatives to organization-wide scale and, in the context of UN reform, the Paris Declaration and changing aid modalities, what this could mean for children in our world. One year later, UNICEF’s Executive Board approved a new Focus Area for the Organization: “Policy Advocacy and Partnerships for Children’s Rights.”
