Healthy women are critical to the survival and welfare of infants. UNICEF helps women protect their own health and that of their children, improve nutrition, and learn new skills through training and practical assistance.


They can learn to recognize basic health problems and to treat their children in the home--quickly, safely, and economically, thus providing a safer environment for their families and a better future for their children.

Projects have ranged from encouraging breast-feeding, instead of formula milk, to safe motherhood programs and improving girls’ access to primary education.
