Too much screen time may not be so bad for kids after all https://t.co/NuijkJXb6X

[Australian Human Rights Commission @AusHumanRights]

Urgent action is needed to ensure every child, in every community, is safe from violence in their home. During National Child Protection Week, and on every day of the year, children must be centred in discussions and decisions around Family and Domestic Violence.

@PRGuy17 SA presser is very positive about the Vic response

[Victorian Department of Health @VicGovDH]

World Children’s Day 2020 marks 31 years since the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which has helped to transform children’s lives around the world.

Why not share and discuss this child-friendly version with a child in your life?

[Australian Human Rights Commission @AusHumanRights]

Today is #WorldChildrensDay, the anniversary of the @UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child.

It is particularly important in 2020 as COVID-19 has severely affected children, and many of their rights protected in the CRC.
