VISION

KIYO wants all children and youth to have the opportunity and the ability to realise their rights as stipulated in the Children’s Rights Convention.

We want a world in which children and youth are protected from harm, where they can develop themselves to their full potential, where they can express themselves, are being heard and their voice is taken into account. We want children and youth to be able to take their future in their own hands.

MISSION

KIYO empowers children and youth to take charge of their lives and realise their rights so they can contribute to a just and sustainable society.

WHY?

The UN Children’s Rights Convention stipulates the universal rights of children & youth.

In practice, realising these rights to their full extent remains challenging.
