INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN'S DAY


International Children’s Day is celebrated on November 20. On this date, many activities are carried out to promote the wellbeing, fraternity and understanding among children worldwide.


On September of 2000, during the Millennium Summit, world leaders set forth the Millennium Development Objectives, which go from reducing extreme poverty to granting primary education to all children by the year 2015. Although the Millennium Objectives are meant for humanity as a whole, they concern children specifically.


Asha-Kiran hereby pays tribute to children and to the hope of attaining a world that may nurture and protect them.
