World To Rights


World To Rights is a new project from the Church Mission Society's youth and children's team.  Following on from the success of FREE FOR ALL in 2007, World To Rights will be touring around cathedrals in the UK, working with thousands of young people to explore the Rights of the Child.


The tour kicks off in January, 2009, but before then, the team from CMS visited Manila in the Philippines to experience something of the lives of street children there.  Understanding the Rights of Children through eyes that do not even know what it is to have any rights was an important context for the project.

The team flew out on September 22 and returned on October 3rd and were making a film which will be used throughout 2009 to help young people in the UK to connect with street children around the world, and to grasp a sense of the rights and responsibilities we all have.
