As the World Children’s Day is marked on Friday, UNICEF says it is important to listen to children and young people to encourage them to reimagine a brighter future and achieve what they aspire to be.
Peter Hawkins, UNICEF Representative in Nigeria, made the call in Lagos on Friday at a programme to celebrate 2020 World Children’s Day with the theme focused on reimagining a better future for every child.
World Children’s Day is UNICEF’s global day of action for children, by children, marking the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of a Child (CRC) on Nov. 20, 1989.
