What is the function of UNICEF?

  1. To promote cultural exchanges across countries

  2. To oversee international environmental policies

  3. To aid education and the health of children and mothers in developing countries

  4. To regulate international arms trade

The correct answer is: To aid education and the health of children and mothers in developing countries

UNICEF stands for the United Nations Children's Fund and its main function is to advocate for the rights and well-being of children worldwide. Therefore, the correct option is C as it mentions the specific focus of UNICEF on education and health in developing countries. Option A, promoting cultural exchanges, may be a noble goal but it is not the primary function of UNICEF. Option B, overseeing environmental policies, is the responsibility of other organizations within the United Nations, such as the United Nations Environment Programme. Option D, regulating international arms trade, is outside the scope of UNICEF's work.
