Every year, approximately 400,000 children develop cancer, and their chance of survival depends on where they were born. To fight this inequity, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital , Pan American Health Organization , UNICEF , World Health Organization , and partners have united under the Global Platform for Access to Childhood Cancer Medicines to create a sustainable model for the delivery of childhood cancer medicines to low- and middle-income countries. UNICEF secures and delivers affordable, quality-assured medicines, a critical step in protecting children from counterfeit and sub-standard medicines and upholding every child’s right to health.
