….Unfortunately
it is still a dream…. It is a pity, because having Rights is such an important
thing!!
UNO has
always been fighting for Peace in the World, but peace can only exist if every
Human Being has rights. And children have specific needs, so it is normal that
they also have specific Rights. In 1959, UNO adopted the Declaration of the
Children Rights and this Declaration was completed by a Convention in 1989.
On the 20th
November 2014, we are celebrating the 25th anniversary of the
Children Rights Day!
Those Rights
are listed below:
1. The
right to equality, without distinction on account of race, religion or national
origin.
2. The
right to special protection for the child’s physical, mental and social
development.
3. The
right to a name and a nationality.
4. The
right to adequate nutrition, housing and medical services.
5. The
right to special education and treatment when a child is physically or mentally
handicapped.
6. The
right to understanding and love by parents and society.
7. The
right to recreational activities and free education.
8. The
right to be among the first to receive relief in all circumstances.
9. The
right to protection against all forms of neglect, cruelty and exploitation.
10. The
right to be brought up in a spirit of understanding, tolerance, friendship
among peoples, and universal brotherhood.
Unfortunately,
specifically today, a lot of children have their Rights violated ! And
sometimes you just need to open your eyes and watch carefully to discover that
it is not necessary to be in a so-called poor country to face this situation!!!
The
Children Rights were yours few years ago!!! One day, our country, our world,
will be governed by our children… So in the hope of having a better world one
day, we need to fight to make these Rights being respected EVERYWHERE, EVERYTIME!!!
As these children, who give their smiles to this cause, stand up and talk!!!!
We have a
dream…. One day, everybody will understand why having Right sis so important
and why we need to respect them !!!
