Presentation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child in child-friendly language and double reading
The CNPDPCJ marked the 32nd Anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child on 19 November at the Ajuda National Palace, where a special edition of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, produced by the National Commission, was presented.
This special edition of the Convention is double-reading, intended for blind, low-sighted and normovisual people. Being accompanied by an audiobook and one video performed by Radio ZigZag, this Convention illustrated in child-friendly language, is a book where the word “inclusion” finds its deepest meaning.
The presentation session was attended by the children of the Helen Keller College and the Jacob Rodrigues Pereira Education and Development Center, of Casa Pia de Lisboa, who read some of the articles of the Convention in braille, in black and in Portuguese Sign Language.
Also present were the Minister of Labour, Solidarity and Social Security, the Secretary of State for the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities, the President of the CNPDPCJ and the Director of the Palace, the Royal Treasury Museum and the Aid Library.
Also in the session, to be honored, João Paulo Félix, ultramarathonist, who, this year, returned to Portugal to run, for the Rights of Children.
