Dear @UNICEF,
Indonesian children should never be used to advance any political agenda or government campaign. Indonesia's Child Protection Law emphasizes that every child has the right to be protected from exploitation, violence, discrimination, and any activity that may jeopardize their best interests. Involving elementary school children in public rallies, asking them to carry campaign-style signs or chant political slogans raises serious concerns about whether their rights are being respected.
Children can’t meaningfully consent to political participation. Schools should remain safe spaces for learning—not places where students are mobilized to endorse government policies.
We urge independent monitoring to ensure that children's rights are fully protected and that no child is used as a tool for political messaging.
Hello @UNICEF, Indonesian government is forcing elementary school students to join 'rallies', carried signs, and chanting slogans in support of the free meal program that has been widely opposed by the public due to its corruption and state budget hoarding. ⚠️
