We defend children’s rights three ways:
documenting violations of children’s rights
advocating for greater protections
offering free legal aid

Thank you 🙏

It's been a great Christmas so far for us, but in other parts of the world Christmas is not kind to everyone -not even to all children. We've made a donation to DCI to help their fight against child homelessness. Every little helps (the suggested amounts are only a guide).

[Adina Dudau @AdinaDudau]

For a humane Christmas, let's contribute to having children and families reunited and bridging the gaps between border regulations #HumanRightsDay2021 @NantinaTsekeri

⚖️ DCI advocates at all levels for the rights of #Girls and young women to be fulfilled and upheld.

If you were looking for a cause to contribute to this Christmas, consider Defence for Children International, an organisation very close to my heart. They provide legal advice, support and direct services to displaced children and families @for_greek #HumanRightsDay

It urges the EU institutions and Member States to use existing responsibility sharing mechanisms, including voluntary relocation and family reunion procedures, to ease tensions at various borders and bring children and families to safety at the onset of winter.

The inappropriate use of technology by the EU at its border needs to be halted! An effective, working solution requires vision, courageous leadership, and collective responsibility.

[Defence for Children International Greek Section @dcigreece]

Refugees and people on the move must have their fundamental rights upheld , their claims to asylum be heard & their dignity respected. Repressive EU migration policies criminalize those people rather than uphold their rights under international law.
