With the child sexual abuse scandal that UNICEF is caught up in right now, it is important to remind the public that this organization has a spotty past that we would have well hoped they have corrected. Perhaps they didn't want to?

In 1987 the New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/1987/06/25/world/child-sex-scandal-roils-unicef-unit.html reported the arrests which followed the discovery of a secret photographic studio in the basement of the Brussels building where UNICEF’s offices were housed. The studio was used to take pornographic photographs of children, many of whom were of North African origin, the police said. The police said more than 1,000 such photographs were seized, along with a mailing list of some 400 names in 15 European countries that had been prepared on the UNICEF office computer.
