TheTakeOffInterview| Tomorrow (20 November 2020) is World Children’s Day . This year, the COVID-19 crisis has resulted in a child rights crisis. The socio-econnomic costs of the pandemic for children are immediate and, if unaddressed, may last a lifetime, as thousands of children have been exposed to poverty and abuse. This year’s theme for World Children’s Day is focused on amplifying children’s voices to ensure they are heard.
The question is, how do we elevate the voice of children on issues they currently facing?
