Innocenti Research Briefs Evidence and Gap Map Research Brief UNICEF Strategic Plan 2018–2021 Goal Area 1: Every child survives and thrives Published: 2022 Innocenti Research Briefs This research brief is one of a series of six briefs, which provide an overview of available evidence shown in the Campbell-UNICEF Mega-Map of the effectiveness of interventions to improve child well-being in low- and middle-income countries. Five of these briefs summarize evidence as mapped against the five goal areas of UNICEF’s 2018–2021 Strategic Plan. A sixth special brief was added to focus specifically on COVID-19 and other epidemics and major crises.

Innocenti Working Papers Demographic Challenges and the Implications for Children in CEE/CIS AUTHOR(S) Leonardo Menchini; Sheila Marnie Published: 2007 Innocenti Working Papers The first part of this paper documents the striking changes in population size and structures which have occurred since the beginning of transition, and which have led to a substantial reduction in the child population. It is argued that they have been mainly driven by the drop in birth rates which has characterised the whole region, but which has been most dramatic in the CEE and Western CIS. Some countries in these subregions now rank among those with the lowest levels of fertility in the world, and the shrinking cohorts of children in these countries face the prospect of a growing old-age dependency burden. The second part of the paper discusses recent data on infant and under-five mortality, which are direct measures of child well-being, and of the success of policy measures aimed at improving child survival and development. The paper highlights the marked differences not only in levels, but also in progress in reducing mortality rates across the CEE/CIS. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 52 | Thematic area: Countries in Transition | Tags: birth rate, child mortality, child survival, demographic change, right to survival and development, under five mortality rate × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION Leonardo Menchini; Sheila Marnie 2007 Demographic Challenges and the Implications for Children in CEE/CIS. , pp. 52.
Innocenti Publications 1990-2005 Celebrating the Innocenti Declaration on the Protection, Promotion and Support of Breastfeeding: Past achievements, present challenges and priority actions for infant and young child feeding (second edition) Published: 2007 Innocenti Publications In 1990 the Innocenti Declaration on the Protection, Promotion and Support of Breastfeeding set an international agenda with ambitious targets for action. The Innocenti Declaration reflected both the spirit of the support that was being mobilized for breastfeeding, and the recognition of the right of the infant to nutritious food enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child. This publication reviews the context of the Innocenti Declaration and analyzes the achievements that have been realized towards the targets that were established in 1990. It describes the continuing and new challenges that exist to optimal feeding of infants and young children, and suggests a way forward towards the global aim of ensuring universal enjoyment of children’s right to adequate nutrition. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 64 | Thematic area: Rights of the Child | Tags: child feeding, early childhood, innocenti declaration, right to food, right to survival and development × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION 2007 1990-2005 Celebrating the Innocenti Declaration on the Protection, Promotion and Support of Breastfeeding: Past achievements, present challenges and priority actions for infant and young child feeding (second edition). , pp. 64.
Innocenti Publications Declaración de Innocenti del 2005 sobre la alimentación de lactantes y niños pequeños Published: 2007 Innocenti Publications En los 15 años transcurridos desde la adopción de la versión original de la Declaración de Innocenti, en 1990, se ha logrado un notable progreso en lo que a mejorar las prácticas mundiales de alimentación de lactantes y niños pequeños se refiere. No obstante ello, las prácticas de alimentación inapropiadas, es decir la alimentación subóptima o la ausencia de lactancia materna y la alimentación complementaria inadecuada, continúan representando la principal amenaza para la salud y la supervivencia infantil en todo el mundo. Una mejor práctica de la lactancia materna por si sola ayudaría a salvar las vidas de más de 3.500 niños y niñas por día, más que cualquier otra intervención preventiva. Guiados por principios aceptados de derechos humanos, en especial aquellos plasmados en la Convención sobre los Derechos del Niño, nuestra visión es crear un entorno que permita a las madres, sus familias y otras personas a cargo del cuidado de los niños realizar decisiones informadas acerca de una alimentación óptima, definida como la lactancia materna exclusiva durante seis meses con la posterior introducción de la alimentación complementaria apropiada y la lactancia materna continuada hasta los dos años de edad o más. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 8 | Thematic area: Rights of the Child | Tags: breastfeeding, child feeding, innocenti declaration, right to food, right to survival and development × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION 2007 Declaración de Innocenti del 2005 sobre la alimentación de lactantes y niños pequeños. , pp. 8.
Innocenti Publications Declaration Innocenti 2005 sur l’alimentation du nourrisson et du jeune enfant Published: 2007 Innocenti Publications Depuis 15 ans qu’a été adoptée la première Déclaration Innocenti, en 1990, l’alimentation des nourrissons et des jeunes enfants a fait des progrès remarquables dans le monde entier. Cependant, des pratiques alimentaires inappropriées - allaitement insuffisant ou inexistant et alimentation complémentaire inadéquate - restent dans le monde ce qui menace le plus la santé et la survie de l’enfant. Une amélioration de la pratique de l’allaitement maternel pourrait à elle seule sauver chaque jour les vies de plus de 3500 enfants, soit plus que toute autre action préventive. Conformément aux principes communément admis des droits de la personne humaine, en particulier ceux énoncés dans la Convention relative aux droits de l’enfant, notre but est de créer un environnement permettant aux mères, aux familles et aux autres personnes qui s’occupent des enfants de choisir en pleine connaissance de cause une alimentation optimale, qui est définie comme un allaitement maternel exclusif jusqu’à l’âge de six mois, suivi par l’introduction d’une alimentation complémentaire appropriée en parallèle avec la continuation de l’allaitement au sein jusqu’à l’âge de deux ans ou audelà. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 8 | Thematic area: Rights of the Child | Tags: breastfeeding, child feeding, innocenti declaration, right to food, right to survival and development × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION 2007 Declaration Innocenti 2005 sur l’alimentation du nourrisson et du jeune enfant. , pp. 8.
Innocenti Publications Dichiarazione degli Innocenti 2005 sull’alimentazione dei neonati e dei bambini Published: 2007 Innocenti Publications Nel 1990 con la Dichiarazione degli Innocenti sulla Protezione, Promozione e Sostegno all'Allattamento Materno si è stabilita una agenda internazionale con obiettivi ambiziosi da raggiungere. Nel Novembre 2005 Firenze ha nuovamente ospitato un congresso internazionale per la celebrazione del 15mo anniversario della Dichiarazione degli Innocenti. L'anniversario è stato celebrato per: valutare i progressi fatti nella promozione, protezione e sostegno all'allattamento materno a partire dal 1990; richiamare l'attenzione dei governi, della società civile e dei donanti ad aumentare gli sforzi per l'attuazione degli obiettivi della Dichiarazione degli Innocenti e degli obiettivi addizionali stabiliti nel 2002 con la Strategia Globale per l'alimentazione dell'infanzia e del bambino; accrescere la coscienza intorno al diritto di ogni bambino ad una alimentazione adeguata, e agli obblighi per ogni settore della società ad assicurare che questo diritto venga rispettato. La Dichiarazione degli Innocenti sull'alimentazione dell'infanzia e del bambino riprende i rinnovati impegni presi durante questa storica celebrazione e registra i 5 obiettivi addizionali che sono stati identificati come parte della Strategia Globale in corso sull'alimentazione dell'infanzia e del bambino. + - Cite this publication | No. of pages: 8 | Thematic area: Rights of the Child | Tags: breastfeeding, child feeding, innocenti declaration, right to food, right to survival and development × COPY BIBLIOGRAPHIC CITATION 2007 Dichiarazione degli Innocenti 2005 sull’alimentazione dei neonati e dei bambini. , pp. 8.
