Do something: Child Rights
Children in Zimbabwe rally around their area for children's rights, talking about the change they want to see.
Looking for ways to support children's rights in your community? Check out our tips and pick the ones that suits you – it's all about making positive choices!
Be a friend
Support someone who seems alone or is being bullied. Sometimes, just having someone to talk to can make a big difference in another child’s life.
Work together
Start a small club or group in your school or neighborhood to discuss child rights. Members can learn, discuss, and plan activities together. Use posters, home visits, street theatre or maybe social media to spread awareness about children's rights. Also, organise fun and useful projects such as community clean-up days, book drives, or food collections. These activities can help create a better living environment for all children in your community.
Learn better together! Child Rights Ambassador Mireille, from D.R. Congo, plans local activities with the Child Rights Club in her village.
Help where needed
Volunteer at local shelters, libraries, or community centers. Helping out in such places can make a big difference in the lives of children who need support.
