Your best experience with UNICEF?
Working in emergencies in different regions, gave me the opportunity to be part of a global mission with the purpose to protect and improve the living conditions of affected women and children, through humanitarian and sustainable development projects.
Your biggest challenge when working for UNICEF?
Working in Sierra Leone precisely after the 10-year civil war (1995-2000) period during which the
children´s rights were totally unattended. This assignment was more than completing a Masters Degree in
Emergencies of all type.
SUCH A HUGE CHALLENGE !!!!
What is your biggest fear, in relation to the future of children? What is your greatest hope, in relation to children?
Fear : My biggest fear on the children´s future is to see them grow in a planet undergoing extreme climate crisis, importhereant demographic
displacements and major social and economical inequities.
Hope : My greatest hope is in the power of technology to guarantee gobal inclusion to education and services, medical and energy innovations
to improve quality of life and global cooperation towards building a more equitative and sostenible world, respecting children´s rights.
What is one piece of advice you would wish to give to the UNICEF Executive Director?
To promote technology as a tool for inclusion and global connectivity allowing children to have universal access to education and services.
To promote values of cooperation and resillience and create greater awareness of children´s rights in favor of equity and social justice.
Do you have any suggestions to improve XUNICEF - content, format, ideas, etc..?
To include more information on latest global developments, and specific cases of success, representing an improvement in the actual living conditions of marginalized populations, mainly women and children.
