UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

**For every child, **_hope_**

At the national level, UNICEF Malaysia is working on empowering all children and young people, particularly the most vulnerable, by:

- Ensuring that child-critical services are more inclusive, and resilient to and prepared for disasters;
- Engaging children and young people through education, preparedness and resilience programmes;
- Building capacities of national and local partners to prepare and protect children from disasters and climate impacts; and
- Maximising partnerships that strengthen disaster risk reduction and resilience
