November 20: World's Children’s Day

Every November 20, the world comes together around a simple and essential conviction: children’s rights are non-negotiable. This day does not belong to a single organization; it is carried by all actors—institutions, associations, families, citizens—who work to ensure that every child grows up in a safe, respectful, and caring environment.

Children’s rights are enshrined in international conventions, but they only come to life if we make them live—together. Protecting childhood means giving every child the opportunity to learn, to dream, and to thrive without fear.

At the Lëtzebuerger Kannerduerf Foundation, we place these rights at the heart of our mission. But we know this responsibility is a shared one. That is why we invite everyone to get informed, take action, and support initiatives that strengthen care and child protection.

Together, let us ensure that every child is welcomed with respect, surrounded by kindness, and protected without condition.
