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,

We are Emmanuel and Lautaro, some boys from Spain, from Blanes, to whom they have told us about your situation. We want to try to comfort you a little.

It is a difficult situation, but one gets out of everything. Look for a distraction; try to be able to do sports or read, or whatever you can. Above all, try to improve as a person however you can. Try to help everyone, especially the weakest; they will thank you for it. All good actions are rewarded.

We hope you are well and that you can get out of this.

Greetings from Spain, Emmanuel and Lautaro
