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.

Hello! How are you? I hope you are doing as well as possible. I am Miranda from Veracruz, Mexico. I know that you are going through very difficult situations; it is not the end. Fight and do the best for yourself. This will not be forever. I hope things go well for you. I love you very much and I know you are strong. We would give anything to help, but from this position we cannot. We send you blessings. Do not give up; keep going forward and think positively. No matter how much you have lost, it is not the end, and I know you will get ahead. Lots and lots of luck too.
