Guest Debs UK Posted April 12 We could start by educating about what human and children rights are - and then we need to make sure that governments are exemplary in passing laws that protect rather than abuse our rights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Gavin Posted April 12 I worry that human rights are just an idea we keep in books and people are not truly committed to achieving them. Otherwise, why would we have anyone living on the streets, let alone children? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Lauren, UK Posted April 13 I think local councillors should take more of an interest in sharing with the community about children's rights. In the UK, I think many people assume that all children access their rights, however this is not the case, which is why more education is needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Lis- U.K. Posted April 19 So many good ideas - how do we get them to happen. We need to be vocal in our passion for human rights - for all people young and old. Young people are our future - we need to value their input. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Zaitun Muhammad (Uganda) Posted April 20 I think the community should put more actions on those rights because they always talk about it but they never put them into consideration and the other thing let the communities build places for them to stay so that we can stop losing the lives of innocent children.

Guest Godffrey Newton (Uganda) Posted April 20 They say 'actions speak louder than words'My community simply need to act upon curbing cases of child abuse. Words alone should stop. The community will learn faster through this approach Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Jane Posted April 22 Children and adults need to be educated as to what children’s rights are and communities need to be supported to work together to ensure rights are upheld Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Davy UK Posted April 23 Maybe the issue is we try to look at too many issues at once and it can feel overwhelming. Maybe if we just focus on one or two issues at once we could solve them and then work on other rights after that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
