John Stewart UNICEF Australia President UNICEF Australia | 3 THINGS THAT MATTER UNICEF Australia has been active in putting children at the forefront of its advocacy for children globally, in our region and here at home. In marking the 25th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, UNICEF Australia asked Aussie children and young people about the world they lived in, what was important to them, what made them feel safe, what they worried about, who they worried about and whether they felt included in decisions affecting them. Their answers made up the Things That Matter report, shared by UNICEF Australia with the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, in Geneva, and government leaders protecting the rights of children in Australia. Download the Things That Matter report at www.unicef.org.au/thingsthatmatter CRC@25 In every region of the world, the CRC has inspired changes in laws to better protect children, altered the way international organisations see their work for children and transformed the way children are able to take an active role and participate in their communities and societies. To celebrate 25 years of a global Convention to protect the rights of every child, actor and UNICEF Australia National Ambassador Callan McAuliffe travelled to youth music festival Splendour in the Grass and asked festival-goers, along with other Aussie kids and young people, to join with UNICEF and make a video celebrating the rights of Australia’s children and young people.
