ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE OMBUDSMAN ON THE WORLD DAY OF THE CHILD
Let's paint this November 20 in blue.
The color that this year is a trademark on the World Day of the Child. Dress a blue t-shirt, put a blue badge or a small blue detail. Let it be in the sign of the blue, thus showing how we respect the children.
Let's show that we respect their rights: to go to school and to be safe there, to study, to have free time, to participate in making decisions that affect them, to feel as part of the community, the family, to learn to talk, to forgive, to love and to be loved. In a word, let us know how important they are to society, for its prosperity / development.
But to show them that we are always here to help and protect them, especially today in the era of massive spread of social media, which have both positive and negative impact on them. Let's learn how to use this new a communication tool, but also how to recognize the dangers they are lurking.
.
The Ombudsman this year also uses this occasion on the World Children's Day to remind the importance of the process of upbringing children, their involvement in all the society's flows, the need for their protection from violence in schools as well as in the family, therefore that only a healthy built person can create a healthy, democratic tolerant society.
