The “Child Friendly City” seal is an acknowledgement issued by the Spanish Committee of
UNICEF in conjunction with the Ministry of Health, Consumption and Social Welfare, the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces and IUNDIA that recognises the work of municipalities for incorporating childhood and adolescence into municipal life.
