Since 2013, the #IFFDAwards have been presented every year during the Commission for Social Development to national, regional or local governments recognized for the promotion of family perspective policies, and to persons or private entities for their contribution to promoting family values around the world.
The Ministry Delegate in charge of Childhood, Youth and Families, headed by Minister Ms. Sarah El Haïry, has been granted one of the 2024 IFFD Awards for their work on enhancing assistance for all family members, with a particular focus on impoverished single-parent households, predominantly led by mothers, and better access to daycare services, fostering a more equitable work-life balance, addressing the challenges associated with old-age care, predominantly shouldered by family members.
The Blue Treen Foundation (Korea), founded by Jong-Ki Kim, has been granted the other 2024 IFFD Awards for their work in promoting hope for youth by preventing and overcoming school violence, prioritizing help to families who suffer from it, taking the lead in protecting human and education rights of marginalized youth and provide professional services.
As usual, the IFFD Awards Ceremony will take place during the IFFD Briefing at the United Nations Headquarters next February.
