In July of 2016, UNICEF and Playing For Change Foundation entered a three-year regional partnership to improve conditions for children, families and communities through music, thus contributing to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
The partnership marks the first official alliance bridging the world’s leading agency on children’s rights with the ground-breaking music mission advancing artistic expression as a direct channel for peace building, conflict resolution and positive change.
