Answer:
UNICEF has been working in India since 1949. The largest UN
organisation in the country, UNICEF is fully committed to work with the
Government of India to ensure that each child born in this vast and
complex country gets the best start in life, thrives and develops to his or
her full potential.
The challenge is enormous but UNICEF is well placed to meet it.
The organisation uses quality research and data to understand issues,
implements new and innovative interventions that address the situation of
children, and works with partners to bring those innovations to fruitition.
What makes UNICEF unique in India is its network of 13 state
offices. These enable the organisation to focus attention on the poorest
and most disadvantaged communities, alongside its work at the national
level.
UNICEF uses its community-level knowledge to develop innovative
interventions to ensure that women and children are able to access basic
services such as clean water, health visitors and educational facilities, and
that these services are of high quality. At the same time, UNICEF reaches
out directly to families to help them to understand what they must do to
ensure their children thrive.

Long answer:
Child protection
UNICEF works to provide a safe and protective environment for vulnerable children, including victims of abuse, exploitation and violence. UNICEF develops and strengthens child protection networks at the community, local and national levels. The organization also supports the establishment of Child Protection Units and specialized courts to help victims of child exploitation and abuse. In the Philippines, UNICEF has lobbied successfully for the passage of several major laws to protect children’s rights, including the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act and the Anti-Child Pornography Act of 2009.
Disaster risk reduction
UNICEF's disaster risk reduction (DRR) program aims to establish models of child-centered disaster risk management for eventual replication by local government units (LGU), as a basis for integrating DRR in their local development plans. Aside from bridging the gap between community-based activities and public policy, UNICEF also facilitates the partnership of non-government organizations with LGUs to adopt child-sensitive and child-centered DRR and climate change adaptation plans and programs.
Education
UNICEF works to achieve quality and inclusive education for all children in the Philippines. UNICEF supports the Philippine Government’s thrust to expand access to quality Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD), which includes universal Kindergarten. UNICEF's education program aims to provide an equitable platform for learning to ensure that young children are ready to learn and enter school at the right age, and that marginalized and excluded children participate in and complete quality elementary education.
Health and nutrition
UNICEF's health program supports the Philippine Government’s Universal Health Care Agenda and poverty reduction initiatives to serve the poorest families and most vulnerable groups, particularly women and their newborn babies and beneficiaries of the conditional cash transfer program. In line with UNICEF’s equity focus on regions identified by the government as the most disadvantaged, the organization's programs are being implemented in areas that have the lowest number and coverage of health facilities and skilled birth attendants, while supporting the institutionalization of standards to improve the quality of healthcare services for mothers and children at the national level.
UNICEF's nutrition program aims to improve child survival, growth and development through life-cycle nutrition security interventions. UNICEF's nutrition programs in the Philippines include: increasing access among pregnant and lactating women and children under 5 years old to interventions that prevent under-nutrition and micro-nutrient deficiencies; treatment of acute malnutrition; sustaining positive nutrition behavior in vulnerable local government units; and supports the government in promoting breastfeeding and Infant and Young Child Feeding practices.
HIV and AIDS
UNICEF is supporting the Philippine government's HIV response by gathering data and strategic information, advocating for laws that are responsive to the needs of children and young people, providing life skills and leadership training to adolescents, and helping the government, NGOs and youth networks improve service delivery to respond to the crisis.
Social policy
UNICEF provides technical assistance to the Philippine government in expanding social protection programs that help children and families who do not receive basic social services, such as street families, indigenous people and migrant families.
Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH)
UNICEF aims to achieve universal use and access to sustainable and resilient basic sanitation and safe water with improved hygiene behavior in disadvantaged households, schools and ECCD centers in the Philippines. The organization's WASH program focuses on the poorest villages with the lowest WASH coverage, and scaling up interventions to support government programs that address WASH issues at the national level
