Children's Rights
This page was translated from German using artificial intelligence. The translation may contain errors or inaccuracies. In case of doubt, the German original version prevails.
Over 30 years ago, the member states of the United Nations agreed on more than 50 articles designed to protect and positively influence the lives of all children around the world: the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Even though children fall under existing human rights, they are particularly vulnerable. This is because they cannot fully enforce their natural rights on their own.
In January 1990, the Federal Republic of Germany was one of the first countries to sign the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
The explanatory film "Children's Rights" provides a child-friendly overview of the significance of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and is aimed at primary school children as well as teachers and educational professionals for their educational work. In addition to providing historical context, it also highlights areas where the full implementation of children's rights in Germany is still lacking and what children themselves can do to actively advocate for their rights.
Child protection concerns us all!
The protection of our young citizens is a responsibility for all of us – not just for parents, educators, or teachers.
We all have an interest in the healthy and happy upbringing of our children and young people.
For this, we also need to know what special rights children have.
