Universal Children’s Day 2020!

Posted on 20/11/2019

Universal Children’s Day is celebrated annually on the 20th November. The goal of Universal Children’s Day is to improve child welfare worldwide, promote and celebrate children’s rights and promote togetherness and awareness amongst all children. The date marks the anniversary of the UN General assembly adopting both the declaration and convention of children’s rights.

As part of this day we are announcing our new Protective Behaviours training to children and young people. The training teaches children about their right to feel safe at all times, who talk to if they feel unsafe, and feelings associated with being unsafe. The training includes the principles of the UN Declaration of the rights of the child, e.g. the right not to be hurt or exploited.
