World Children’s Day, observed on November 20, sheds light on the fundamental rights of children, and the tragic fact that a large number of children are deprived of them.

Every child deserves the simple joys of a carefree childhood, the protection, safety, and warmth of a loving home, and the hope of growing up to a bright future. Yet, it is a shame that even in this day and age, countless children are subjected to violence, cruelty, poverty, and hunger, all over the world.

Let us build a future where every child can thrive in safety, love, and limitless opportunities.
