Description

–>

As we enter the 4th year of the current CPD , UNICEF Mexico is faced with significant changes in the country, especially regarding children and adolescents, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in and the growing demands related to the migratory situation, especially in the northern border, among other issues. In response to these challenges, the office has grown exponentially in staff number and allocated budget, and three new field offices were created, under a complex programmatic context to respond to humanitarian needs while maintaining a high level of advocacy and system strengthening at the federal and state levels. Given this context, we are reinforcing our capacity for humanitarian preparedness and response, management, planning, and implementation in the field. The strengthened field presence will also allow a sustained approach to monitoring the situation of children and bottlenecks that hinder the fulfillment of women's and children's rights, especially in remote or chronically excluded areas. Similarly, a strong field presence also provides UNICEF greater political and community credibility in a country with significant political, ethnic, and geographic diversities.
