Draw and Paint Your Rights - The Story of Portugal
On November 20, the World Children’s Day was celebrated. It was on November 20, 1959 that the Declaration of the Rights of the Child was proclaimed worldwide, and on November 20, 1989, the Convention on the Rights of the Child was adopted. The purpose of the date is to highlight and publicize the rights of children around the world.
According to our project "Friends at Home, Friends Abroad", one of the activities is to Draw and Paint your Rights. Thus, taking advantage of that date, in the last weeks, all primary school students of EB1/PE da Marinheira, Portugal, carried out several activities in the Library class to get to know better and celebrate their Rights: storytelling, writing, drawing, videos and songs.
To end the celebrations, two technicians from the Commission for the Protection of Children and Youth visited the school together with a professional storyteller to narrate a short story on the theme of this day, for students in the 3rd and 4th grades. All students were very interested and participated in all activities with great commitment and motivation.
With all these activities, our children became more aware that their rights must be respected so that they can grow up healthy, safe and happy, thus fulfilling one of the main objectives of our project.

After learning about it, some rights got special attention from the students:
*freedom of thought and religion.
*right to privacy.
*right to an education.
The students found it very important that those rights are meant for every child in the world.
