Article 13: Freedom of expression

The Children's Parliament is the national venue for children to voice their views on issues faced by children in Yemen. Through this body, they can strengthen children’s participation in decision making and advocate strongly for their fundamental rights. 

The debate in Strasbourg, France at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, included medical experts, religious leaders and genital integrity activists. 

A Children's manifesto, voicing the violations of child rights in the state as well as the country, has been prepared by 50 children from different villages across Odisha and presented to the policy makers of the state.
