ABSTRACT
Jason, aged 17, a member of the Children’s Parliament in his town in the Democratic Republic of Congo. He is also part of the World Vision’s Young Leaders for Ending Violence against Children project, and he have been advocating for children’s rights and the well-being of children since 2016. Joining the Children’s Parliament was the first step to ensuring he was able to participate in decision-making and contribute his thoughts to the debate around children’s rights. Last year, during strong rebel pressure on the city, the schools remained temporarily closed and the war put us in inhuman conditions. The most beautiful decisions relating to children are those taken with them and adopted by adults after letting children explain what they think.
