In 2011, 52 years after the signing of the UN Declaration of the Rights of the Child, millions of children around the globe continue to live in a state of constant emergency – their rights forgotten, their futures pre-written. Far removed from the UN offices that gave birth to the declaration, for these children protection, safety and a free, dignified childhood are but a distant dream.
This edition of the Australian PhotoJournalist is dedicated to them. Collectively, the children’s stories are the silent scream on the pages of this magazine.
