This activity was held in the framework of the European Union/Council of Europe joint programme “Ensuring Sustainable Democratic Governance and Human Rights in the Southern Mediterranean (South Programme III)”.
The aim was to raise-awareness amongst children and to involve them in the decision-making process regarding topics concerning them through their pro-active participation during the event. Around 70 children of different age groups (early childhood, childhood and adolescence) and regions participated in the art workshops and drafting activities.
