The United Nations' Universal Children's Day, which was established in 1954, is celebrated on November 20th each year to promote international togetherness and awareness among children worldwide.
The world has made a promise to children - we will do everything in our power to protect and promote their rights to survive and thrive, to learn and grow, to make their voices heard and to reach their full potential.
Universal Children's Day is not simply a day to celebrate children for who they are, but to bring awareness to improving children's welfare around the globe.
Today, take some time to contemplate the state of the world for our children, celebrate them and consider what more we can do to make the world a safe place for all children.
You can help raise awareness by using social media to start conversations about National Child Day with friends, family members or co-workers.
