Materials for Children’s Rights Week in English

The theme for Children’s Rights Week in 2025 is every child’s right to be heard. The materials include the 2025 theme of inclusion in different areas of children’s and young people’s lives – not just in school. Every child and young person has the right to belong to communities and to society, and not only to be seen but also to be heard. The themed materials explore inclusion and how it is realized from many different perspectives and in various ways.

The materials can be adapted for children of different ages in grades 1-9.
