Too tall to overlook
Our over three-meter-tall children’s rights figures represent the 10 core rights of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The size of the figures is intended to depict children as larger than adults, serving as a reminder to give more attention to children’s rights.
The “Giant Children” have already been exhibited many times. Highlights include exhibitions at the Parliament in Vienna as well as at the United Nations in Vienna and Geneva (the home of children’s rights!). During these presentations, we had the opportunity to discuss the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child with the Federal President and other decision-makers, emphasizing the importance and visibility of children’s rights in public spaces.
The “Giant Children” can be rented as a traveling exhibition. More information can be found below in the project description.
Children's rights figures








Our goal
Children taller than they really are because of their height – seemed to us in a joint discussion at one of our all-day workshops a brilliant way to make adults aware of the non-compliance with many children’s rights worldwide.
Due to their imposing size, the figures cannot be overlooked and are also an object of art.
The young people could not estimate how much time it would take…so the whole project was an individual “creation” according to the motto: The journey is the reward!
Creativity and individuality were at the top of the list.
Once completed, the figures will now be set up in public places, museums, city festivals and schools to bring children and young people closer to the topic of children’s rights and at the same time draw attention to the grievances worldwide.
A total of “10 giant children” were created, each representing the 10 basic rights of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The figures are approx. 2.70 m high and are intended to serve as advertising pillars on which facts about the relevant children’s rights can be discovered and read. They are eye-catching, but on closer inspection they are also thought-provoking.
The next goal will be to display the figures as often as possible and to find people who are open-minded and would like to put up all 10 figures so that we can all draw attention to children’s rights together!
In conclusion, it can be said: Our children’s rights figures have a very clear mission: to tell people about UN children’s rights.
Because… too few people know about them!
