How UNICEF and Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation fast-track aid #foreverychild
When humanitarian shipments are delayed at borders, children’s lives are at risk.
That’s why UNICEF and the Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation (GATF) have joined forces to create ADEPT: Accelerated Delivery of Essential Products Together.
By streamlining customs procedures and leveraging digital tools, ADEPT fast-tracks life-saving supplies like vaccines and medicines, while also strengthening national supply chains.
Combining UNICEF’s humanitarian expertise with GATF’s trade facilitation know-how, ADEPT brings together governments, humanitarian and development actors and the private sector to eliminate bottlenecks and build more resilient systems.
Already making an impact in countries like the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Honduras, Madagascar, Mozambique and Nepal, ADEPT is helping deliver essential supplies faster and where they’re needed most.
By strengthening the resilience of systems, we can respond to crises more effectively, and help prevent future ones, #ForEveryChild, everywhere.

UNICEF works in the world’s toughest places to reach the most disadvantaged children and adolescents – and to protect the rights of every child, everywhere. Across more than 190 countries and territories, we do whatever it takes to help children survive, thrive and fulfill their potential, from early childhood through adolescence.
The world’s largest provider of vaccines, we support child health and nutrition, safe water and sanitation, quality education and skill building, HIV prevention and treatment for mothers and babies, and the protection of children and adolescents from violence and exploitation.
Before, during and after humanitarian emergencies, UNICEF is on the ground, bringing lifesaving help and hope to children and families. Non-political and impartial, we are never neutral when it comes to defending children’s rights and safeguarding their lives and futures.
And we never give up.
