Campaigning for child rights

International Child Campaign promotes human rights and in particular the rights, welfare and education of children throughout the world to help break the cycle of suffering, poverty, injustice and violent conflict.

This tag cloud is based on the Convention on the Rights of the Child word count. Great emphasis is placed on those responsibe for ensuring that children have access to their rights, i.e. the States that are party to the agreement.

Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice. Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings.

There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children.

Education is the most powerful weapon which we can use to change the world.
