Today the @UNinPak organised its quarterly Member States briefing chaired by UN RC a.i. Pernille Ironside and Dean of the Diplomatic Corps Ambassador Atadjan Movlamov.
Foreign Ambassadors listened to interventions from @UNAIDS_Pakistan, @WFPPakistan and @UNDP_Pakistan.

Lead poisoning is the most widespread environmental health threat to children worldwide, affecting more than 800 million — far more than malnutrition, infectious disease, or conflict. No other single hazard impairs so many children, so silently, and so irreversibly.
Honored to join Bhutan's Prime Minister @tsheringtobgay at today’s #UNGA event on lead exposure prevention.
For 50 years, @UNICEF and Bhutan have partnered to protect children's health and futures.
Together we can create a safer, more sustainable world.
I leave Pakistan with a heart full of gratitude and warmth, having been the recipient of kindness and generosity….yet burdened by the weight of untapped potential and the millions still left behind and waiting to be uplifted.
“Crisis after crisis, 🇵🇰 kept us on our feet. There was never a dull moment. It demanded resilience, creativity, compassion — & above all, humility,” writes @AbdullahAFadil in his op-ed for @etribune. Read his reflections as his tenure in the country ends.

Grateful to the DHQ Hospital Muzaffargarh team for the insightful visit to see the impact of a @UNICEF-supported solarized oxygen plant. The plant ensures continuous oxygen for preterm & vulnerable babies, while surplus oxygen now supports health facilities across the district.
Through the solarization of health facilities, @UNICEF is finding green solutions to build a more resilient health system. Look forward to our continued collaboration with @GovtofPunjabPK to strengthen healthcare in South Punjab, so every child survives & thrives.
No child should have to choose between work & education. Yet, this is the harsh reality of poverty in Pakistan. To ensure children don't miss out, UNICEF supports early morning learning centres in #Multan from 7:30 to 10:30 for the children who must work to support their families
It was an honour to meet our Youth Advocate @TaqwaAhmad2006 at her home. We spoke about Taqwa's incredible journey as an advocate, I tried (& failed!) to beat Subhan's record on the Rubik's cube & sampled the local delicacies from Gujranwala. Thank you for the warm welcome!
It was an honour to meet @Malala, an inspiring advocate for girls' education, at the @MWLOrg_en conference in Islamabad. We discussed Pakistan's education crisis, the power of #GirlsEducation to drive change & agreed to explore collaboration with @MalalaFund in future 📚
Great news!
Sindh Province eliminates tetanus for mothers & newborns. Congratulations to the Chief Minister @MuradAliShahPPP & Minister of Health @AzraPechuho on this remarkable achievement. Thank you for your commitment to strengthen maternal & child health & save precious lives
.@UNICEF is proud to support vaccination against tetanus, health worker training and community engagement to protect pregnant women and newborns across Pakistan.
.@COP29_AZ, Zunaira @UNICEF_Pakistan youth-climate activist from Hub-Balochistan-🇵🇰eloquently makes the case why investing in children/young people with climate resilient programmes is crucial for the future. She says, “listening to children & youth isn’t a choice, but a right.”
Here @COP29_AZ in Baku—Youth Climate Forum Dialogue where young people share about their priorities on the climate agenda. Their strong advocacy for health, education-equity & the role of children and youth is strong & clear.
With leaders like these, our future is in good hands.
.@UNICEF_Pakistan we are privileged to partner with @NCRC_Pakistan and @cpwbpunjab for the rights & protection of children in 🇵🇰. With two strong leaders fighting to end violence against children once and for all, we will get there. Great job @AyeshaRaza13 and @SarahAhmad_CPWB.
The Pakistan Delegation at the First Ever Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children in Bogota, Colombia. We will make some concrete pledges on behalf of the Government of Pakistan shortly @GovtofPakistan @NCRC_Pakistan @cpwbpunjab
