World Children's Day 2020: Message of Manfred Nowak

On this #WorldChildrensDay, our Secretary General Manfred Nowak is in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), teaching all week at the PhD School of the Center for Human Rights, Addis Ababa University.
On 17 November, he also attended the National Launch of the Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty.

The national launch starkly reminded us that one of the most overlooked violations of the rights of children is the deprivation of liberty. Although the Convention says deprivation of liberty can only be a measure of last resort, there are still more than 7 million children locked up in for example institutions, in the criminal justice system and in migration related detention.
So, on this significant day for the rights of children, let us not forget that depriving children of their liberty, means depriving them of their childhood.

The EMA students encountered the EMAlumni association

#TBT 🎥 The EMA / Global Campus Europe Students encountered the EMAlumni association!

Adam Jacobi Moller, president EMAlumni Association: "We're in the international institution, we're in the fields to help the most marginalized people and we also promote human rights democracy. What we do as association is to connect people better. When you arrive in a new place as a graduate of the Ema you have a network, you're starting out on your own. You'll be there with someone who understands your background".

Gabriel Alves De Faria, secretary general of the #EMAlumni association:
"It's extremely relevant to the EMA Programme and for the community of Alumni to have an association that guide them after their graduation".

#TBT 🎥 Watch the interviews with Michele and Fionnuala on EMA Career Day 2020

"Human rights professions are so broad that it’s easy to get lost into the formalities that are required to apply for a human rights career, or even to choose what is a good fit for each person.”
Michele Romano, Board Member of the EMAlumni Association

“I think that the human rights' field is probably one of the most interesting fields to be in, but it can also be very challenging, professionally but also personally.”
