(ANS \u2013 New Rochelle) – <\/strong>Salesian Missions, the U.S. development arm of the Salesians of Don Bosco, joins humanitarian organizations and countries around the globe in recognizing World Children\u2019s Day, also known as Universal Children\u2019s Day. Celebrated each year on November 20th, the day was established in 1954 to promote international togetherness and awareness on children\u2019s issues worldwide. To date, 194 countries have signed the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and are bound by international law to ensure it is implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, youth will \u201ctake over\u201d high-visibility roles in media, politics, business, sport and entertainment normally held by adults to shine a spotlight on issues that matter to them. UNICEF noted, \u201cFrom climate change, education and mental health, to ending racism and discrimination, children and young people are raising their voices on the issues that matter to their generation and calling for adults to create a better future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Father Timothy Ploch, interim director of Salesian Missions, said, \u201cThrough education and social development programming, Salesian missionaries in more than 130 countries around the globe are working to break the cycle of poverty and bring a sense of dignity to all those they serve. Missionaries are also working to ensure that all youth know their rights, are able to fully participate in their communities and have their voices heard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s combating child labor, assisting homeless youth or building schools where children previously had no access to education, Salesian missionaries are making sure those in need have access to programs and services. With more than 5,500 Salesian educational institutions and youth centers, missionaries are educating children in some of the poorest places on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In honor of World Children\u2019s Day, Salesian Missions is proud to highlight social and educational programs that benefit children around the globe.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
