International Organizations International Organizations - groups of governments or people from different countries working together to solve an issue that crosses country borders Intergovernmental Organization - an organization formed with groups of governments for a specific purpose Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) - are groups that work to solve problems around the world but are not connected to any government.

United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) Founded 1946 as an extension of the United Nations 193 member nations today Focuses on issues that affect children around the world

Armed Conflict More than 2 million children have died in armed conflicts in the past decade. At least 6 million children have been seriously injured or disabled Disruption of the local water and electricity supplies in times of armed conflict increases the spread of disease in war-affected areas. War also causes emotional and psychological damage in children, especially when they are orphaned or separated from their families. It prevents children from getting an education. UNICEF tries to protect children in these situations with medical help, shelter, finding their families, and getting back to school.
