Children's Week NT

Children’s Week in the Northern Territory

22 - 30 October 2022

The 2022 theme of Children’s Week is based on Article 27 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child:

‘Children have the right to a standard of living that is good enough to meet their physical and mental needs. The government should help families who cannot afford to provide this.’

CHILDREN’S RIGHTS ACTIVITY

Children and young people learn and grow when they can choose their own friends, set up or join groups, come together to have their say, and have adults who help them to connect safely.

We’ve created the Children’s Rights Activity to to invite children and young people to tell us about ways they connect with others, and why this is important to them. Download the Children’s Rights Activity.
