Objectives

The reason why we want to conduct this project: Throughout the world, many children are deprived of their rights due to war, conflict, bureaucratic problems and poverty and are trying to survive in extremely difficult conditions. Sometimes, even they can not get the right to live which is the most basic one, and the children unfortunately lose their lives. In order to avoid this bad situation, most families leave their countries and migrate to other countries and this migration rate is high both in our country and in Europe. however, due to the fact that people are unconscious and ignorant about child rights; and that they are not aware of the fact that each child has the same and equal right regardless of their culture, religion, sex; and the prejudices against refugees due to intolerance to differences cause the children who migrate from their countries to other lands to be excluded from society, and the violations of their rights, and thus not taking enough precautions about these violations.In order to prevent these problems, todays youth as the parents of the future and the children of the past should be informed about the rights and violations of children and their motivation should be increased by increasing their sensitivity. Objectives of our Project: The main objective is to contribute to reduce the violations of child rights by increasing the competences of young people on children's rights. Specific objectives: 1. To inform young people about children's rights and to increase their level of consciousness 2. To raise awareness among young people that each child has the same rights without discriminating language, race, or gender 3. Reducing youth's prejudices about refugee children 4.To increase the motivation and competence of taking initiative of young people to involve them in the problem of child rights violations
