UNICEF has praised Egypt’s First Lady, Entissar El Sisi, for her leadership in organizing the World Children’s Day ceremony and for her unwavering support for the rights of children in Egypt.
In a statement posted on social media on Tuesday, UNICEF’s country office commended Mrs. Sisi for her dedication to improving the lives of children and ensuring a brighter future for the younger generation in Egypt. Her active involvement in children’s rights issues has been instrumental in advancing initiatives aimed at fostering the well-being of every child in the country.
World Children’s Day, celebrated globally on November 20 each year, marks the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The day, which was first established in 1954 under the name Universal Children’s Day, is dedicated to promoting international solidarity and raising awareness about the challenges faced by children around the world. It serves as a platform for advocating children’s rights and advancing their welfare globally.
UNICEF’s recognition of Mrs. Sisi underscores her important role in championing children’s causes, not only in Egypt but also within the broader regional context.
