November 20
Children's Rights Day Celebration
The Society marks its public launch on November 20 in observance of United Nations World Children's Day, which commemorates the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
The Children's Peace Day Invitational
The Children's Peace Day Invitational gives families, schools, youth groups, and community theaters a place to begin. It is an opening, not an event with a single hour: a first invitation any group can accept in its own room, on its own schedule, around November 20.
Free theater activity
The Invitation That Arrived Tomorrow
In the free theater activity The Invitation That Arrived Tomorrow, an empty chair and a late invitation prompt young people to ask who was left out and how the story changes when that person has a voice.

A global learning journey
The campaign artwork marks this first Children's Rights Day Celebration — an invitation for classrooms, families, and youth groups to begin the journey in their own communities, wherever children gather and wherever they are still waiting to be heard.
Golden Soulstice
The invitation continues through the winter solstice with Peacemaker Enterprise's Golden Soulstice, a celebration for all peace-seeking children of Earth. It invites children everywhere to imagine what peace could look like in their own communities and carry one idea into the new year. A group might make a meeting easier to join, care for a community garden, or map a safer route to a place where children gather.
