PARTNERSHIPS AND MDGS



UNreform is vital for UNICEF in its efforts to help achieve the MDGs:

• UNICEFBangladesh works closely with other UN agencies, as well as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). Interventions for the elimination of child labour are implemented jointly with ILO and  ADB. Joint initiatives with UNDP, the United Nations Population Fund and WFP will be developed into more mature programmes. WHO is a partner in health-related initiatives.

• The UN Country  Team (UNCT) and focal points continue to work together to design joint programmes in the areas of HIV/AIDS, child labour, maternal health, child marriage and dowry, urban slums and the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT). For example, WFP and UNICEF are partnering to distribute nutritionally enhanced biscuits to young children in the CHT.  UNICEF will continue to play a strong role in the United Nations  Theme Group and to support the UNAIDS secretariat.

• UNICEF works closely with development partners, international and national NGOs, private sector and civil society organisations. Collaboration and coordination will be intensified with donors, including Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden and the United Kingdom, as well as with the European Union and National Committees.
