November 20 is Children’s Rights Day. The fact that the youngest people in our society have these special rights is often lost in everyday life. The SOS Children’s Village calls on young people to finally be taken seriously when it comes to questions that concern them. Plus: The six tips for an equal everyday life in your own family.
“Children should be appropriately involved in decisions that affect them.” Not only is this demanded by the SOS Children’s Village on the occasion of Children’s Rights Day on November 20, but it is even enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which was adopted 34 years ago today and entered into force today. “How often do adults make decisions that are highly relevant to young people without taking their interests and perspectives into account?” criticizes Christian Moser, director of SOS Children’s Villages, referring, among other things, to the current debate on climate protection.
