At the Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa young leaders and inspiring voices took the spotlight for World Childrens Day, delivering powerful speeches focused on child protection and rights.
Children were given the opportunity to participate in a parliament session that put their concerns at the centre, read letters addressed to leaders, and present their aspirations publicly. An Arts & Manifesto Exhibition allowed participants to showcase their dreams and priorities in creative displays, reinforcing the role of imagination in advocacy.
The session brought together senior government officials, politicians, civil society organizations and UN agencies, creating a platform for dialogue between decision makers and young constituents. Attendees highlighted the need to turn the messages heard during World Childrens Day into actionable steps that strengthen child protection across the province.
By elevating children’s voices in the KP Assembly, organisers underlined the importance of sustained youth participation in policy discussions. Continued engagement at events like World Childrens Day sends a clear signal about the value of listening to young people when shaping rights and services that affect their lives in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Pakistan.
