The financing of this important campaign was made possible from the budgets of the children and youth representatives and the FAMILIENLOTSINNEN Reinickendorf. This initiative is part of a larger commitment that highlights the rights of children and highlights the importance of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and its meaning
The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which came into force on November 20, 1989, has now been ratified by almost all states. It guarantees rights to every child, regardless of where they live. UNICEF highlights that this convention has made a significant contribution to reducing child mortality and that more children are attending school today than ever before. Awareness of children's rights is growing globally, something that UNICEF continues to actively promote.
As part of its programs, UNICEF provides schools with materials to anchor children's rights in lessons and everyday school life. This includes digital children's rights boxes, print materials and special school development programs. Schools that successfully participate in children's rights training can receive the “Children's Rights School” certificate and thus actively contribute to the children's personal development and self-confidence. Information on this is also easily accessible in the form of videos available in sign language.
