Across Pakistan communities, civil society and families observed World Childrens Day with renewed emphasis on the duty to protect, empower and uplift every child. The day served as a reminder that progress requires listening to children, safeguarding their rights and working together to remove barriers that limit childhoods.
Campaigns and local events highlighted the importance of hearing childrenβs perspectives on education, health and safety, urging schools, community leaders and parents to create spaces where young voices are respected. Many organisations used the occasion to stress that empowerment begins when children are allowed to speak and adults respond with meaningful action.
Advocates called on policymakers and institutions to strengthen protections so children can grow without fear or limitation, emphasizing practical steps to ensure access to services and to prevent abuse and exploitation. The message of World Childrens Day underlined that legal safeguards must be matched by community-level commitment and resources.
#MyDayMyRights became a focal point for local discussions about rights and responsibilities, reminding citizens that protecting children is a shared responsibility. In Pakistan the call is clear: listen to young people, defend their rights and build a future where every child can thrive.
