20th November 2019, World Children's Day 2019.
Thirty Years of the 'Convention on the Rights of the Child'. It was on this day that the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child, in 1989. It is time we all understood that children are not properties of adults or objects of control. They are human beings having their own rights, which needs to be defended by one and all.
