GEDEV, the federation's international network
SOS Children's Villages

In the spirit of international treaties, the Millennium Development Goals and the Education for All goals, children's rights are a driving force in the fight against poverty.

Through our ESD program, we aim to popularize the content of international treaties on children's rights, to show the link between children's living conditions and access to their rights.

Our educational workshops give children and young people the opportunity to gain a better understanding of children's rights and to critically analyze the international treaties relating to them; to become aware that children's rights are not a given everywhere in the world, and not even in Luxembourg; to form their own opinions on the respect and violation of children's rights in countries of the South and the North.

These dynamic, interactive educational workshops are based on a variety of didactic methods and techniques, such as ethical games, role-playing games, simulation games, discussions, group work and audio-visual (video) editing. They are adapted to the specific needs and skills of the target group.

The priority theme is Children's Rights.
