| About the Endorsement Campaign |
| |
|
This part of the initiative represents an important aspect to the project as it combines the creative and associated inspirational nature of art with the insight and wisdom of the representatives from the world of children’s rights and the position of women in the developing world. By endorsing the initiative, individuals and organisations recognise this initiative as a worthwhile project.
|
| |
|
It further allows for the inclusion of written statements, articles etc. by the individual and organisational endorsements in the catalogue of their respective views regarding children’s’ rights. The catalogue will be widely distributed through the exhibitions campaign as well as promoted at schools and institutions of higher education.
