On November 21, 2025, millions worldwide commemorated World Children’s Day, a pivotal occasion to reaffirm the commitment to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, established in 1954. UN Secretary-General António Guterres emphasized the urgent need for global leaders and citizens to prioritize children’s access to education, healthcare, protection from violence, and freedom of expression. Guterres highlighted the escalating threats to children’s rights, including climate change, inequality, displacement, and emerging online dangers. He underscored that poverty, conflict, and familial responsibilities are depriving countless children of their fundamental rights, including the right to life. Guterres called for collective action to create a safe, equitable world for all children, stressing that the future hinges on how society nurtures the next generation. The UN’s message resonated globally, urging individuals to amplify children’s voices and advocate for their rights.
