      “UNICEF's work to help the children who need it most is very important. I am happy that we can help support UNICEF's work and hope our contribution will help children around the world in difficult situations,” says Hilde Merete Aasheim, President & CEO of Hydro.

      Hydro is a signature partner for UNICEF Norway. UNICEF is mandated by the United Nations General Assembly to advocate for the protection of children’s rights, aligning well with Hydro’s core values and the company’s work with social responsibility and sustainability, which is particularly aimed at education and skills development.

      "I would like to thank Hydro for its valuable contribution to the world's children in 2023. I am proud that Hydro is our partner in the mission of reaching every child in time," says Maria Greenberg Bergheim, Executive Director for UNICEF Norway.
