World Childrens Day

Children are the future, brimming with potential, curiosity, and dreams waiting to be fulfilled. Ensuring their well-being and protection is a fundamental necessity for a thriving society. World Children"s Day celebrates that mission and coincides with the United Nations General Assembly"s adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1959.
