Annual event to give children a voice

Representing a first for South Africa’s children’s advocacy and social development efforts, World Vision South Africa has launched the World Vision Children’s Day of Broadcasting which will be held each year during the month of March across the country.

The campaign, held in partnership with schools and local broadcasters, has been established to support and promote the spirit of International Children’s Day of Broadcasting (ICDB), which was established by UNICEF in 1991 to encourage broadcasters globally to place the spotlight on children’s issues.

Today, thousands of broadcasters in more than a hundred countries celebrate the ICDB and similarly World Vision hosted the inaugural South African CDB at a number of its Area Development Programmes (ADPs) across the country.
