The MA International Child Rights & Development (ICRD) programme team invite you to celebrate Children’s Day with us on 20th November.

Our theme is Championing child wellbeing in a time of crisis, which is the UK’s theme for the day. We are using the opportunity in part to celebrate the work of our recent Alumni, so many of whom directly contribute to this invaluable work.

Everyone welcome!
