The United Nation's Universal Children's Day was established in
1954 and is celebrated on November 20th each year to promote international
togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children's
welfare. On November 20th in 1959, the UN General Assembly adopted the
Declaration of the Rights of the Child and in 1989 the UN General Assembly
adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Since 1990, Universal
Children's Day also marks the anniversary of the date that the UN General
Assembly adopted both the Declaration and the Convention on Children's
Rights.
