With analyses and information of interest to governments, civil society, the media and others concerned with the well-being of children, UNICEF publications play a critical role in fulfilling the organisation's mandate to advocate for the rights of every child, everywhere.
In the publications section you will find PDFs of New Zealand and international publications and special reports.
In the multimedia section you will find interactive versions of reports and publications, interactive features about UNICEF's work, and photo essays.
Every year, UNICEF publishes The State of the World's Children, the most comprehensive and authoritative report on the world's youngest citizens, combining analyses, human interest stories, country profiles, maps and statistical data for 195 countries and territories.
In 2004, UNICEF published the first issue of Progress for Children, a report-card-like series, scheduled to be published two to three times each year, on the progress being made towards achievement of the MDGs in 2015.
UNICEF's Annual Report, issued mid-year, spotlights the significant results achieved by UNICEF and its partners on behalf of children around the world.
In addition, each year UNICEF publishes or co-publishes a number of other major publications. In 2006, for example, titles included Africa's Orphaned and Vulnerable Children: Children affected by AIDS, 1946-2006: Sixty years for children, and Pneumonia: The forgotten killer of children.
UNICEF publishes the latest information on children in special updates, such as The Malaria Report.
The Innocenti Research Centre undertakes original research to improve international understanding of issues relating to children's rights. Its many policy, technical and statistical reports are available at http://www.unicef-icdc.org Of particular note is the MONEE Project, which conducts research on child well-being in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The results of this research are presented in a variety of Innocenti publications, such as the annual Innocenti Social Monitor and periodic Innocenti Social Reports on special topics.
