The Youth Forum of the Municipality of Potenza and the Unicef Regional Committee are pleased to announce the presentation of the new version of the “UN Convention on the rights of children and adolescents” within the project “The Pigotte ambassadors of rights”.
The event will be held Monday 3 June at 5pm in the evocative setting of the Celestine Chapel.
With the words of the students of the Schools in Basilicata, children hosted by the Potenza Penal Institute and foreign minors unaccompanied by local reception facilities, the Pigotte explain, through a graphic representation, the articles of the aforementioned UN Convention.
Unicef representatives will intervene during the initiative, the representatives of the Municipality of Potenzaa delegation from Student Provincial Council of Potenza and a group of students from the IIS “Da Vinci-Nitti” who actively participated in the creation.
With the retranscription of the Convention in simple words, Unicef from Basilicata wants to send a strong message: help the new generations, in whatever corner of the world they live, to be aware of their rights and raise awareness among governments, institutions and adults to listen to their voice!
The Youth Forum awaits many of you for an afternoon of reflection and sharing, dedicated to the promotion of rights.
