The Rights of Every Child initiative brings awareness to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child through art and advocacy.
Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "Rights of Every Child workshops! We hold workshops with groups of children virtually or in-person to get kids discussing, sharing, and creating around their rights. The UNCRC itself calls for adults and children to learn about it and to share human rights and freedoms. Education is a key piece! The UNCRC is all about both PROTECTION of children and their PARTICIPATION. Children’s voices should be heard and valued; kids should be part of whatever concerns them. Please reach out over DM or our website if you’d like to host a Rights of Every Child workshop/ interactive presentation in your school, library, extracurricular group, scout troop, or other venue!"

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "We distilled Article 15 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child to: Every child has a right to peaceful assembly. From the article itself: “1. States Parties recognize the rights of the child to freedom of association and to freedom of peaceful assembly. 2. No restrictions may be placed on the exercise of these rights other than those imposed in conformity with the law and which are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security or public safety, public order (ordre public), the protection of public health or morals or the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.” And from @ariadelsole the artist for this piece: “..children of all ages have the right to gather, assert themselves, and create awareness for the things they believe in, and their rights should be protected…”"

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "Every child has a right to peaceful assembly. From the artist Nadia Fisher @ariadelsole: “I chose to illustrate this right cited in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child because I believe that children of all ages have the right to gather, assert themselves, and create awareness for the things they believe in, and their rights should be protected. 
Children all over the world are already disenfranchised and treated differently just based on their age, and by respecting and honoring their universal right to freedom of peaceful assembly, children are allowed to have certain levels of agency over themselves, defend their rights, become participants in their worlds, and help advocate for their futures. And whether they gather in person or online, as adults, we have to protect their right to be free from discrimination, harassment, and other forms of restrictions when they gather.” [image description: a variance of children behind and in front of a banner, one with a megaphone, one with a sign, one with a drum, all of them mouths open, voices signified by polka dots in a joyful, intentional gathering. The kids, with varied skin colors and features, wear sneakers, jeans, one a hijab, and all in gentle solid colors.]"

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "We distilled part of article 24 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child to “Every child has a right to a safe, clean environment to live in.” Here is part of the article itself: “1. States Parties recognize the right of the child to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health... 2. States Parties shall pursue full implementation of this right and, in particular, shall take appropriate measures:... (c).. through the provision of adequate nutritious foods and clean drinking-water, taking into consideration the dangers and risks of environmental pollution…” And art from @shirleysillos who says: “Every child has a right to a safe, clean environment to live in. Rights of Every Child ...I wanted to create a ‘safe and clean world’ every child deserves. You’ll find native flora and fauna from all parts of the world including the Antarctic (red beech leaves), the European Marguerite daisy, and the African protea; as well as children and creatures dreaming and living under clean air and bright skies, and experiencing nature’s gifts on land and at sea.”"

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "“Every child has a right to a safe, clean environment to live in.” From the artist Shirley Ng-Benitez @shirleysillos: “As a California native, I’m incredibly grateful to live in a place abundant in flora and fauna across the entire state from the ocean to the snowy mountains. In 2020, the SCU Lightning Complex California wildfire heightened my focus on how our global climate crisis affects all creatures so profoundly. My wish is to further compassion and connection through my stories and art, so for this important initiative, I wanted to create a ‘safe and clean world’ every child deserves. You’ll find native flora and fauna from all parts of the world including the Antarctic (red beech leaves), the European Marguerite daisy, and the African protea; as well as children and creatures dreaming and living under clean air and bright skies, and experiencing nature’s gifts on land and at sea.” [Image description: rich, colorful mixed media collage illustration on white background in the shape of a crescent encompassing different landscapes, flora and fauna, and children exploring waterways, forests, and more natural spaces in adventure, safety, and joy. Certain elements like flowers and butterfly pop from the image. ]"
Shirley Ng-Benitez's artwork and story highlight the urgent need to protect our planet and its inhabitants. The 'Safe and Clean World' initiative showcases the beauty of flora and fauna from around the world, while emphasizing the importance of a clean environment for every child's well-being.

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "We adapted part of article 24 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child to: “Every child has a right to clean water.” Here is that part of it in full: ...(c) To combat disease and malnutrition, including within the framework of primary health care, through, inter alia, the application of readily available technology and through the provision of adequate nutritious foods and clean drinking-water, taking into consideration the dangers and risks of environmental pollution;... and @mb__carvalho ‘s art and reflection: “I come from the northeast of Brazil, a place where water holds immense power, both symbolic and material. In 2023, 14 million people in the region still didn’t have access to clean water. This lack of access impacts poor and black families the most, with children being particularly affected. With this illustration, I wanted to honour my home and its struggles, while still celebrating the joys and colour that this basic right can bring to a child’s life.”"

Rights of Every Child on Instagram: "We had our very first Rights of Every Child virtual workshop with students in Turkey! A few 4th grade English and art classes are studying children’s rights and invited me to present and chat with them about the history of the UNCRC and rights and our project as inspiration for them to create their own art, following in the steps of the illustrators in our community!! The students were engaged, shared illuminating insights, and then created incredibly thoughtful artwork! All of it will be on our website soon, but here are a few to share here! Thank you to wonderful Berna ASLAN, the teacher who organized this and to the other educators: Annalise Nazlıca, Emily Blessinger, and Sarah Clarkson Spoors. And the kids!! What an honor to to have a space where kids can learn about rights, PARTICIPATE in them, and create with their own self-expression to carry the rights of every child forward! 🖍️⚽️🌈"
