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.

LETTER FOR PALESTINE

I send you a hug; the light will arrive and the bad will end. There are difficult moments in life, but we are simply supporting you from another country. You may have lost everything, but everything will end [the bad situation] and your life is going to improve. And if you think that you want to disappear, do not do it; you are important and special, even if you might not believe it. Well, I hope you do not suffer anymore and, well, you can do it; you are strong.
