Our flagship report, "The State of the World’s Children 2017: Children in a Digital World," examines the different ways digital technology is shaping children’s lives and life chances, identifying dangers as well as opportunities. Despite children’s massive online presence — 1 in 3 Internet users worldwide is a child – too little is done to protect them from the perils of the digital world, increase their access to safe online content, and empower them to use technology to play, learn and influence policies and conditions that affect them.
UNICEF is a world leader in researching the condition of children worldwide, from survival and health, to education and opportunity. We are also a leading champion for children's rights and the prioritization of children's needs. Our annual "State of the World's Children" report is part of a much larger body of research reports and data-driven advocacy designed to save children's lives and build their futures.
