Children First is a voluntary independent
organisation formed to defend the civil and human rights of children and to
fight for improvement in their living conditions and social status worldwide. Children
First regards the physical and emotional well-being of all children, their
welfare and their free development as the most paramount priority under all
circumstances and views the position of the child as a fundamental measure of
the worth of any society and culture. Children First is an international
campaign, both in its outlook and in the scope of its activities. We do not
recognise any geographical, political, national, ethnic, cultural and religious
barriers and boundaries to our defence of the rights of children. We see
children’s rights as universal. Children First endeavours to expand its
activities to include as many countries and communities as possible. Children
First is a citizens’ campaign, a non-governmental organisation appealing to
all concerned citizens.
