Day 324: International Day of the ChilD

International Day of the Child, celebrated on November 20th each year, is a significant global observance dedicated to promoting and advocating for children’s rights and well-being worldwide. The day marks the anniversary of the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child by the United Nations General Assembly in 1989, a landmark international agreement affirming the fundamental rights of every child. This day serves as a reminder of the ongoing need to protect children from exploitation, discrimination, and violence, while also highlighting the importance of providing them with opportunities to thrive, receive education, healthcare, and a nurturing environment conducive to their development. It’s a time to raise awareness, advocate for children’s rights, and reaffirm our commitment to creating a world where every child can grow up safe, healthy, and empowered to reach their full potential.

Well, as you know me meanwhile, I just like to keep it simple. So in honour of this important day, I am sharing 10 tracks around this subject. Eight of them were on top of mind, a completed the list with two tracks from my collection. Enjoy!
