Mumbai : Children's Day has been celebrated for 67 years around the world as a way to recognize and celebrate the Rights of the Child. Every year, everyone asks children what they want in the future, but the future is here now, and kids are still fighting to have a claim to some of these rights. Recently, children have taken to the streets, raised their voices to a global platform, worked in their communities to make change happen and secure their future.
Through Children's Week, let's not only ask kids what they want for their future but also, listen to their experiences and stories of change. Let’s listen to them leading change, for an India filled with love and compassion.
