Extra game information

The 'Basics of Life' poster is the overview poster for the right to survival. This poster depicts different ways of access to basic needs like food, health or housing. It's one of the four storytelling posters linked to one of the dimensions of children's rights: survival, protection, development and participation. The storytelling poster is closely linked to the Basic Needs Bingo (see further).


All children's rights icons used on the posters are created by UNICEF for their child-friendly version of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Variations

Ask the children to make a drawing about the right to survival and what it means to them.
