NHRC Raises Concerns Over UNICEF-Meta Financial Links and Child Protection
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has raised concerns about the financial relationship between UNICEF and Meta, urging the Ministry of Women and Child Development to scrutinize the funding arrangements. The NHRC highlighted allegations of monetised child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on Meta-owned platforms and questioned the purpose and use of Meta's financial contributions to UNICEF. The commission emphasized the need for careful examination to ensure such associations do not undermine child protection efforts. UNICEF and Meta have not responded to these concerns.
