Een stap-voor-stap handleiding om het spel te spelen

1

Divide the group into two teams and give each team the child rights poster. Give the teams five minutes to familiarise themselves with the poster.

2

Have the teams line up a few metres from the poster.

3

The game leader presents a scenario about the protection or violation of children's rights (see additional game information). The first player from each team runs to the poster and places a bottle cap on the right that is most relevant to the scenario. Encourage the players to identify the duty-bearers involved in the scenario and let them explain their role in the protection or violation of the right. Only if the player can place their bottle cap on the correct right AND if they can explain which duty-bearers are involved in this scenario, the player will earn a point for their team.

4

The game can continue for as long as desired, with the team with the highest score being declared the winner at the end. The game can also be played until all scenarios are exhausted.

The general overview poster shows all the articles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). The UNCRC consists of 54 articles that set out children’s rights and how governments should work together to make them available to all children. On this child-friendly poster, all 54 articles are depicted. This poster functions as the main starting point for the All Children, All Rights package. Therefore it's highly recommended to always have this overview poster at hand when doing activities on children's rights.


This game has been specially created to work on the topic of duty-bearers with children and youngsters.


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.


For StreetSmart Wheels partners, the code of the poster is SOCIETY-C1
