The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy, and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop, and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations. Strategic office context: UNICEF’s Digital Impact Division builds and operates UNICEF’s digital foundations, including modern enterprise platforms, digital products, infrastructure and AI capabilities, and sets the digital guardrails that keep them secure and resilient through cybersecurity and risk-informed security, while partnering with programme teams, country offices and governments to responsibly scale digital solutions, including digital inclusion initiatives such as Giga and the adoption of AI, digital public infrastructure and digital public goods, to strengthen national systems and accelerate results for children, including in emergencies. Digital Foundations (DF) creates and sustains transformative, data- and AI-ready digital solutions grounded in human-centered design. Leveraging resilient, scalable cloud technologies provides a secure and adaptable technology backbone to deliver results for children with greater efficiency and agility. Through forward-looking technology roadmaps and continuous improvement, the Digital Foundations function modernizes core systems, strengthens cybersecurity, and fosters innovation to ensure future-resilient systems. As a key enabler of UNICEF’s digital transformation, it enhances data-driven decision-making and enables operational excellence to achieve sustainable results for children. Data Transformation (DT) To efficiently deliver on its mission, UNICEF must become data enabled and AI ready. The Data Transformation – Enabling Global AI Initiative (DT&AI) is a foundational project to make that a reality, leveraging technology to deliver in an increasing resource constrained environment, improving how we make decisions, measure results, address risks, and serve children more effectively across the world. DT&AI will establish the foundations needed to transform UNICEF into a more efficient, data-informed organization and to fully leverage AI. Key actions include building robust data and AI governance, improving data quality and insights, enabling innovation through new technologies, developing foundational infrastructure for immediate ‘quick wins’ and scalability and gathering evidence to reduce future investment risks. Some of the quick wins are enhancing corporate dashboards to support AI adoption.
