We are protecting children’s mental health

Global crises and the growing threat of climate change are taking a heavy toll on children’s mental health, threatening their well-being and futures. From providing safe spaces during emergencies to working in communities to foster dialogue on mental health, UNICEF is working to ensure children around the world have the support they need to meet their social and emotional needs.
