Round the Globe for Change

The students bring their messages on a 3 km trek for rights and change – a natural and powerful end to Changemaker Day.

Together with other children around the world, the students cover many laps around the globe and share their messages about rights and change with everyone around them and with local media. They can walk or run, dance or even roller skate!

Pick a good destination

Maybe the students want to walk to the town centre or to a place where decision makers gather? The more people who get to see what the children have to say, the better and more fun and exciting it is.

Children in D.R. Congo want gender equality!

Some children, like here in Kathmandu, Nepal, ask local police to walk with them for safety, especially if there is heavy traffic in the area.

Report how many children participated in Round the Globe for Rights and Change. If you have a WCP Coordinator in your country, report to them (see p. 31). Otherwise, report via email to info@worldschildrensprize.org. Then we can calculate how many laps around the globe the children have completed so far!

Well done Changemakers!
