The Virtual globe
The children of the world express their rights creatively
The Virtual Globe is made up of over 5,000 photos, videos and texts produced by students who took part in the Un Monde plus Juste project, highlighting one of the children’s rights of their choice. The right to education, to health, to participation, the right to play, to live with one’s family… these are all fundamental rights that are important to these children, who speak out creatively through their testimonials.
How does it work?
- Explore the children’s achievements either by navigating the globe with the mouse or by using the search bar.
- Click on one of the 5’000 miniature photos on the globe to discover a children’s right defended by one of the many students who took part in the project.
- Download and print out the students’ creations in order to display them in the classroom or at home.
Find out what children from Guatemala, Burkina Faso, Benin, Switzerland and elsewhere have to say about their rights!
An exhange platform for teachers and students
The Virtual Globe is an important working tool for teachers and students involved in Enfants du Monde programs. It’s the medium that enables students to share their testimonials and discoveries outside the classroom with the audience of their choice: children and classes from other cities, regions or even countries, adults within their school, their parents or friends, authorities interested in hearing their point of view on the implementation and respect of their rights.
