    (Journal of School Health Education, 1999) Emeke, E. A
    United Nations children Education Fund(UNICEF) has invovled itself in a number of programmes.

The issues of child labour abandoned children and children with disabilities are the focus when discussing UNICEF's activities in the area of child protection. Education is touched on as a direct correlate of UNICEF's involvement in child development. Since the paper is taking a global view of UNICEF's activities, it does not concerntrate on any country per se. Focus on any particular country, be it Nigeria or any other one will be necessary if country programmes and activities were being discussed.
