Questions? We’ve got you covered!

Download the InfoPack, learn and engage about children’s rights with your family, friends, peers and community. Children are also invited to directly participate in a global action by drawing and/or writing a message regarding their rights and peace addressed to the leaders of the world, in the square paper dedicated for that purpose in the InfoPack. They can then fold the paper into an origami peace dove following the instructions contained in the InfoPack or, if preferred, children can use a simpler cut-out peace dove. If you are an adult, you can assist children in the conduct of this activity. Origami doves should then be sent to one of the addresses mentioned in the Infopack, in order to be integrated into an art piece that will be created with all the origami doves collected and displayed at the United Nations in New York. Information about the art piece will be shared at a later date.

And don’t forget to spread the world about this campaign!

Any children, meaning anyone around the world, who is between 0 and 18 years of age can make and share their origami doves.

You can send a picture of your drawing and/or letter to proveitmatters@un.org and a dove will be folded from your drawing and/or letter.

In every effort possible, messages received will be digitalized and kept as long as allowed by United Nations internal guidance. The origami doves will be kept for one year after the end of the campaign and then discarded if no further purpose is envisaged.
