When A Child Is A Better Advocate

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

This is a glimpse of the United Nations Conference on the Environment and Development in Rio (1992).

Children are increasingly used to advocate their own rights in international fora and in the field, as if we adults found it more and more difficult to face up to our responsibilities regarding them.

The speech is subtitled in Brazilian Portuguese. Some UN delegates are listening to interpretation in their own languages.
