UNICEF
otherblueglobefigure
The UNICEF flag features the UN's light blue background with a white emblem showing a mother and child silhouette in front of a globe, surrounded by the UN laurel wreath. The mother and child motif represents the organisation's focus on children's welfare, while the globe shows its worldwide reach.
UNICEF is the only UN organisation dedicated entirely to children. Originally called the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, it dropped 'International' and 'Emergency' from its name but kept the acronym.
Adopted: 1946
