World Children’s Day 2025
20 November 2025; 11:00 – 12:30 CET; European Parliament (Room SPINELLI 5G1); Brussels.
Hosted by MEP Hristo Petrov and MEP Evin Incir
Eurochild will celebrate World Children’s Day with a child-led event at the European Parliament, marking the anniversary of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Six young speakers from Eurochild Children's Council, SOS Children’s Villages, and Quest will lead discussions on two key issues:
- Inclusion of children with special needs and disabilities
- Tackling bullying and cyberbullying
Organised by the Child Rights Action Group (CRAG), of which Eurochild is part, together with child rights champions in the European Parliament, this session will give children the floor to share their perspectives and recommendations directly with EU decision-makers.
Let’s make 20 November a day to reaffirm the EU’s commitment to children’s rights and meaningful participation.
