Tehran-The “World! Reak the Children” campaign has officially launched, inviting children and youth from Iran and around the world by creating paper cranes to support the oppressed children of Palestinians. They can share videos of their efforts as solidarity gestures across social media platforms.
Institute of Children and Young Adults, organized by the Institute of Intellectual Development in Iran – Kanoon aims to raise awareness of children’s rights, including the Convention on the Rights of Children, and to shed light on children’s lights in Gaza, Palestine, Palestine and Iran.
Participants are encouraged to take part in the “World! Watch Kids” campaign by creating a 30-second video showing the creation of a paper crane. They need to invite friends to join and share videos on social media platforms such as Instagram.
Additionally, content can also be shared under @wlc_ngo through campaign pages and messaging app channels, encouraging others to participate.
The “World! Watching Children” campaign highlights the principle of banning good as the most practical ethical and humanitarian act of the present situation. It advocates creative approaches to raise awareness about children’s rights.
Additionally, pilgrims participating in Arbaeen Walk can contribute by making paper cranes using origami and folding techniques, sharing videos and giving cranes to fellow pilgrims to promote their campaign.
According to the phone, children of all ages (from children to adults) are invited to submit their work to the campaign’s office from August 11th to October 13th.
Paper cranes are a universally recognized symbol of peace, hope and friendship, representing the desire to heal the wounds caused by harmony and conflict. The story is rooted in the life of Sasaki Sasa, a young Japanese girl who was influenced by the Hiroshima atomic bomb during World War II.
As a victim of radiation diseases, Sadako believed that Japanese legends would give a wish and bring recovery from illness to fold a thousand paper cranes. Inspired by this hope, she devoted herself to folding cranes, aiming to achieve her goals despite her poor health.
Tragically, Sadako passed away at the age of 12 after completing the 644 crane. Her friends and classmates were moved by her wishes for courage and peace, and created a legacy that continues to represent the rest of the crane in her memory, symbolizing resilience, peace and universal desire to end conflict.
Today, Sadako and her crane stories stimulate countless peace movements around the world, underscoring the importance of compassion and hope in the face of adversity. Paper cranes remain a powerful coat of arms that encourage global harmony and efforts to protect children’s rights everywhere.
