Art from the Heart

This is the digital exhibition of artworks and message from children all over the world prepared by the Children's Advisory Team of Child Rights Connect. The goal is to support the discussion at the Annual Day on the Rights of the Child at the UN Human Rights Council about children in armed conflict by showing how children see the world, how conflict affects them, and what they want adults and decision makers to do to protect them.

Children’s voices matter. Their views matter. Even, and especially, in times of war. When children are listened to, peace becomes possible.

English Translation

Hello, little angel reading this. I know you are going through a lot, I know the bombs scare you, I know it is difficult and I just want you to resist. Resist. Sometimes things are intense, but imagine when all this ends. Hug the person closest to you; they say we need 12 hugs a day to survive.

Much strength ❤️
