On World Children’s Day (and every day), the Founding Mothers say this global prayer: Every child deserves to grow up knowing they are loved, protected, heard, and free to dream.
We invite communities around the world to celebrate Children’s Day of Peace – a day dedicated to honoring children through joyful expressions of unity, creativity, kindness, and hope.
Our Goal: One Day * Endless Peace.
Whether your community gathers in a school, a park, a neighborhood, village or city square, every act of peace matters.
- Walk together
- Play together
- Care together
- Create together
- Celebrate together
One day can inspire a lifetime.
World Children’s Day * Friday, November 20, 2026
Honoring the U.N. Treaty on the Rights of Children
Click on image to read the Treaty
1959: U.N. General Assembly adopts the Declaration of the Rights of the Child.
1989: U.N. General Assembly adopts the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a legally binding Treaty detailing the rights every child should possess in order to live a safe and happy life.
The United States is the ONLY U.N. member NOT to sign the Treaty. But we don’t have to wait. Towns, counties, and states can declare adoption, as was done in Santa Clara, California.
