Answered by GPT-5 mini AI
Both are part of the UN system and are coordinated/overseen by the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).

- UNICEF is a UN fund/program created by the UN General Assembly and is accountable through the UN system (via ECOSOC).
- WHO is an autonomous UN specialized agency linked to the UN; specialized agencies are coordinated with and report into the UN system through ECOSOC.

Each organization also has its own governing body (UNICEF’s Executive Board; WHO’s World Health Assembly) that manages its operations.
