Join us for World Children’s Day
November 20th is World Children’s Day, UNICEF’s global day of action for children, by children. On this day, the anniversary of the signing of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, we celebrate children’s rights.
Whether as an individual, a company, a community or a school, everyone can participate in World Children’s Day and advocate for children and their rights. There are several options to join: You can either Go Blue or organize various other activities.
54 Rechter vum Kand
Fir de Weltkannerdag setze mir d’Kannerrechter an de Mëttelpunkt a markéieren d’Adoptioun vun der Kannerrechtskonventioun. Dëst ass e wichtegen Accord ofgeschloss vu Länner, déi sech verpflicht hunn d’Rechter vun de Kanner ze schützen an en huet d’Liewe vu Millioune Kanner verännert. Déi 54 Artikele sinn all verbonnen, si hunn all déiselwecht Wichtegkeet a kënnen de Kanner net ewechgeholl ginn.
Go blue
Maacht d’Luuchten aus
Iwwer 100 Gebaier, ëffentlech Plazen a Monumenter goufen iwwer d’Jore blo beliicht. Wéinst der Energiekris wëlle mir dëst Joer eng aner Approche huelen.
Ouni ze beliichten.
Beliicht online

What are children’s rights?
To celebrate children’s rights, UNICEF raises awareness of children’s rights in general each year, specifically of article 12, which guarantees every child the right to be heard and to be an active member of civil society.
Just over 30 years ago, world leaders worked towards a common goal and adopted the Convention together. This important agreement has changed the lives of millions of children.
