“Upholding children’s rights is the compass to a better world – today, tomorrow, and into the future.” 💙 This World Children’s Day, let’s celebrate the Convention on the Rights of the Child and its mission to ensure every child is protected, valued, and empowered. From the right to education and play to protection from violence and harm, these rights form the foundation of a peaceful, just world. The Knotted Gun sculpture’s version as Imagine by @ringostarrmusic, a proud Non-Violence ambassador — stands as a powerful symbol of hope and unity. Just as this piece envisions a world free from violence, the Convention calls on us to build a world where every child can grow up with dignity, safety, and opportunity. Today, let’s imagine and work towards a future where children are not just surviving but thriving, where they are free to dream, create, and lead the way to a brighter tomorrow. #worldchildrensday #childrensrights #nonviolence #imaginepeace #knottedgun

On October 10, 2024 an intergenerational group of students, youth researchers, scholars, injury scientists, UNICEF representatives, and community engaged groups such as Counseling In Schools, @nvp_usa and Nonviolence Project Global met for a full day to deliberate on the power of the youth voice in injury prevention. Throughout the day we heard the importance of youth scholars in formulating actionable steps to reduce the toll of violence in communities. Firearm violence, the leading cause of death for those 1-24 was a main focus. The incorporation of the youth voice in research is proposed by the Columbia Center on Injury Science & Prevention (CCISP) with the formation of an inaugural Youth Advisory Council. These activities represent a partnership of the CCISP, the New York Academy of Medicine Intergenerational Action Adolescent & Child Team (IAACT) and the amazing leadership of the Heritage School of East Harlem. #nonviolenceproject #nonviolence #youthdevelopment #peaceeducation #socialchange #empowerment

On this UN Day, we reflect on the profound words of Kofi Annan, former UN General Secretary and Nobel Peace Laureate: “The sculpture Non-Violence has not only endowed the United Nations with a cherished work of art. It has enriched the consciousness of humanity with a powerful symbol that encapsulates, in a few simple curves, the greatest prayer of man which asks not for victory, but for peace.” As we honor this iconic symbol, the knotted gun, let us remember that true strength lies in our ability to choose peace over conflict. Together, we can nurture a world where understanding and compassion prevail. Join us in this vital mission! ✌️💖 #unitednationsday #nonviolence #theknottedgun #peacebuilding #endviolence #un #ECOSOC
