5-year-old Nur plays with colourful blocks at an integrated nutrition facility supported by @UNICEF in the Rohingya refugee camps. Play helps support a child’s cognitive, social and emotional skills for a lifetime. For every child, play!
Globally, girls aged 10-14 years old spend around 9 hours every week on household chores. What does it mean for them? It threatens their education, economic opportunities and future prospects. We need policies that protect, and invest, in their rights. #ShowUpForGirls #IWD2024
.@UNEthiopia Resident & Humanitarian Coordinator, @RamizAlakbarov met baby Danawit who is receiving treatment for severe acute malnutrition at a UNICEF-supported health centre in #Tigray. Providing nutritional services for children living in crises is saving the lives of many.
The well-being of every child lies in a healthy and safe environment. Support from the @WorldBank enables Rohingya children to get nutrition services and enjoy playful moments with friends at the Integrated Nutrition Centre in the refugee camps.

Did you know that in the first few years of life, more than one million neural connections are formed each second – a pace never repeated again. Spending time with your little ones and playing simple games will help you bond with them while boosting their brain development.
