Book Description Condition: Neu. Neu -2014 wurde die UN-Kinderrechtskonvention 25 Jahre alt. 25 Jahre Kinderrechte war der Anlass, das Thema vehement in die Mitte der Gesellschaft zu tragen. UNICEF Deutschland und GEO - unterstützt von den besten Fotografen der Welt und der Edition Lammerhuber - tun dies in einem gemeinsamen Pro-bono-Projekt. Eine Auswahl besonders berührender Fotografien aus dem Wettbewerb »UNICEF-Foto des Jahres« formulieren in 40 Bildreportagen aus 15 Jahren ein aufrüttelndes Plädoyer, die Rechte der Kinder zu achten und jedem Mädchen und jedem Jungen auf der Welt eine Kindheit in Würde zu garantieren. Herausgeber sind Jürgen Heraeus, der Vorsitzende des deutschen Komitees für UNICEF und Peter-Matthias Gaede, der langjährige Chefredakteur von GEO. »We the Children« nutzt die Kraft des Buches, um auf das Leid und die Nöte, aber auch auf die Wünsche und Träume der Kinder von heute aufmerksam zu machen - ein Appell auch nach New York zur UN-Generalversammlung im September 2015. Dort wurde über eine neue Entwicklungsagenda nach 2015 verhandelt und damit auch über die Zukunft von Milliarden von Kindern. »We the Children« ist ein Buch voll Hoffnung auf eine kindgerechte Welt. (Text dt., engl.) 296 pp. Deutsch, Englisch. Seller Inventory # 1500163
