February 10, 2010

This week the nomination round for the International Children's Peace Prize 2010 has officially started. Organizations and governments will be addressed to nominate a child between the age of 12-18 years old, who they think is performing extraordinary efforts to improve or implement children's rights for themselves and children in their environment.

In still too many countries children's rights are not at all or only partially recognized and implemented. The fact that there are children who will stand up for these rights and make sure that they are uphold, is very important. The Children's Peace Prize gives these children a platform to speak and is a recognition for their work.

Therefore, KidsRights calls out to everyone worldwide to nominate a child who would deserve the International Children's Peace Prize.
