World Children’s Day was first established in 1954 as Universal Children's Day and is celebrated on 20 November each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children's welfare. Our future will be created by today’s young people. Listen to them and respect their words and ideas, many likely to have originated from their own lived experiences.
Young people, say your dreams, hopes and ideas about the future, out loud! For every child, every right. By listening to children, we can fulfil their right to self-expression, understand their ideas for a better world and include their priorities in our actions today.

"Children aren't the people of tomorrow but are the people of today. They are entitled to be taken seriously. They have a right to be treated by adults with tenderness and respect, as equals. They should be allowed to grow into whoever they were meant to be. The unknown person inside each of them is the hope for the future."
