Leave no Child Out campaign
Regional network launches campaign based on Leave No Child out imperative
Discrimination and exclusion against children must stop! This was the message given across the CEE/CIS and Baltic States region when the Regional Network for Children (the regional representation of the Global Movement for Children) launched its ‘Leave No Child Out’ campaign at the end of 2003. In Romania, the launch of the campaign concentrated on discrimination against Roma children in the country, and brought together a coalition of NGOs, international organisations, media, Roma mothers and children. In Georgia, children from orphanages were involved in the launch which discussed plans for youth networks and child protection and also had a viewing of one-minute videos produced by the area.
The Leave no Child Out campaign underscores the principle enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child that all children have equal rights and that no child should be discriminated against or excluded from opportunities, services, protection or participation.
