World Childhood Foundation
"We may not accept the abuse of children without acting", Queen Silvia of Sweden claimed - and she acted. In 1999, she founded the World Childhood Foundation on the basis of the UN Convention on Children's Rights. The aim of the foundation is to act globally against the exploitation, negligence and the abuse of girls and boys. At the same time, the foundation boosts for better life conditions of vulnerable and deprivedchildren and for the creation of a worldwide conscience about the rights of children. The World Childhood Foundation does not execute own projects, but cooperates with national, regional and local NGOs worldwide.
