Background
Schools across the globe are closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This violates one of the most basic children’s rights: the right to education. More than 897 million children worldwide are faced with the consequences, both in the short and the long term. Because for many children in a difficult home situation school not only means education but also, and more importantly, a safe haven. In the long term children who are deprived of access to education are at greater risk of child labour, criminality or situations of child abuse.
Idea
That is why the European Union and Unicef are launching a joint appeal to policy makers: keep as many schools open as possible for as long as possible. This appeal is launched through a gripping film conceived by Mutant.
