Faith and Children’s Rights:
A Multi-religious Study on the Convention on the Rights of the Child
To mark the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and in partnership with UNICEF, Arigatou International has developed Faith and Children’s Rights: A Multi-religious Study on the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
This study examines the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) from the perspective of seven major religions, identifies the important role played by religious communities in advancing the rights and well-being of children over the past 30 years, seeks to identify the common values shared among different religions and the CRC and promotes continued action by religious communities to further implement the CRC in the future.
View Study and Executive Summary HereArigatou International is a global NGO which brings people of diverse cultural and religious backgrounds together to build a better world for children.
Whether it’s interfaith cooperation, ethics education, prayer and action, or putting an end to child poverty, Arigatou is "All for Children."
