EVENTS / PHOTO: The rights of children




The rights of children - Photo exhibition


Opening hours 10.00 – 13.00/16.00 – 19.30 - Perugia, Italy - April 21-25, 2010

The new exhibition The Rights of Children, inspired by the book bearing the same title, is the detailed testimony of photographer Giacomo Pirozzi on the condition of children and the work of UNICEF in developing nations. The book narrates the rights of children through photographs taken by the author during his 19 years of work around the world. Exquisite images that are fragments of lives lived on the edge, of denied and exploited childhoods, but that also allow for a glimmer of hope, because they show that it is possible to realize children’s rights by carrying out programs for their education, protection, health. The goal is to celebrate The Convention on the Rights of the Child on its twentieth anniversary (1989 – 2009) and to strengthen the awareness of UNICEF’s work on the field.
