A great event 11/20/13 United Nations Universal Children's Day


A great event to attend. I attended last year and it was a great event (held at a different United Nations affiliate location).

 Daseta will also give a presentation.

2013 United Nations Universal Children's Day 




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.
