Treat children as equal stakeholders

Equal stakeholders: The students pose with Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching and Unicef representative to Malaysia Marianne Clark Hattingh after handing over their recommendations on anti-bullying at Parliament building in conjunction with World Children’s day.

WEDNESDAY was World Children’s Day. First established in 1954 as Universal Children’s Day, it is celebrated each year to promote international togetherness and awareness among children worldwide, and to improve children’s welfare.

Unicef commemorated the day with a #KidsTakeOver campaign, in which children took over roles in media, politics and business, among others, to speak on issues close to their hearts.
