Our contribution to policies and programmesOur research is regularly used to inform national and regional policy and programmes by governments, institutions and think tanks. It is also regularly cited in evidence reviews and research programmes, and by media outlets. Our research into the Impacts of Pandemics and Epidemics on Child Protection: Lessons learned from a rapid review in the context of COVID was cited by the G20 Interfaith Forum, emphasising that children are at higher risk of starvation, homelessness, abuse and ill-being.
Our Cash Transfers project works with the FAO, University of North Carolina, UNICEF regional and country offices, national governments, and local research partners to provides rigorous evidence on the effectiveness of large-scale national cash transfer programmes in 13 countries.

Despite great strides in improving overall child well-being, progress has been slower in key areas of adolescent vulnerability, including exposure to violence, early marriage and school completion, especially among adolescent girls.
It stresses the importance of adolescence as a critical period of formative growth that affects well-being across the life course. The need to incorporate consideration of different structural factors into programme design is gaining support, yet there is still little guidance on systematic evidence-based approaches to employ in practice. The programme is linked to the Gender and Adolescence Global Evidence initiative.
Drawing on multi —disciplinary research expertise, the UNICEF programme has produced cutting edge research that explores what works to improve outcomes for adolescents. Quality evidence is having impact - informing effective policy and interventions in focus countries and beyond.

UNICEF Innocenti coordinates two multi-country evidence generation programmes, Global Kids Online and Disrupting Harm, which serve to generate evidence of the opportunities and risks that children from around the world may encounter in a digital age.
We publish research on national and international internet-related policies affecting children and support UNICEF country offices, regional offices and headquarters in carrying out high-quality research and interventions.
We actively contribute to global discussions around online gaming, excessive internet use, digital technology and mental health, online violence and technology-facilitated sexual exploitation and abuse. Children and young people move within and between countries in varying circumstances, both voluntarily and involuntarily. A wide range of interlinked factors—including economic, socio-political and environmental factors—influence decisions on how, when, and where to migrate.
Despite significant data on migration in general, little exists on the movement of children and young people specifically. Child-sensitive research is essential, not only to understand how the international community can better protect the rights and well-being of children on the move, but also to learn about migration journeys from children themselves.
UNICEF Innocenti builds the evidence base on effective strategies to protect the rights of children and young people who migrate or are displaced through mixed methods research. The work is structured across three pillars: 1 understanding the drivers, decision making and experiences of children on the move; 2 protection and well-being during transit; and 3 durable solutions for child migrant integration, return, or resettlement. Findings account for the distinct experiences of marginalized children and youth, including those living in humanitarian contexts; engaged in labour; and children living with disabilities.
For the past 20 years, the Office for Research has contributed to this mandate through its Innocenti Report Card series. The Report Cards focus on the well-being of children in high-income countries. In recent years, the office has also developed other research on children in high-income countries. Despite remarkable challenges around the world, UNICEF staffers fight for the rights of every child seeking safe shelter, nutrition, protection from disaster and conflicts, and equality.
