Implementation in India

Number of Children Impacted: 20

A group of 20 children from many different backgrounds met for 3 hours on Saturday afternoon. After an interactive session about how Child Rights came to be, we played a game where the group had to find and match all the 18 rights (match the pictures with the text) and arrange them under the four heads – Survival, Protection, Participation and Development. In the reflection and discussion that followed the activity, one of the questions was whether any of these Rights are unnecessary and can be removed or are there any that can be added. It sparked off a great discussion with the children. One child said that all their rights were met and only one or two were not, but there are so many children in the world who had only one or two rights fulfilled and all the rest violated.
