UNICEF and ECHO: A Common Vision

UNICEF and the European Commission Humanitarian Aid Department (ECHO) have been helping children and women in emergencies since ECHOs founding in 1992.

ECHO is UNICEFs second-largest donor. In 2008, it provided more than $50 million to help countries manage disaster preparedness and relief response, with a special focus on assisting children and women.

As the challenges of providing humanitarian aid grow ever more complex, ECHO and UNICEF remain committed to their common vision: providing the most effective possible aid to women and children in need.
