As part of the International Day of Children's Rights which took place this Saturday, November 20, the Lil Hope association offers an exhibition of works by young people.
Visible until November 27 at the Concordia Hospital Center, the exhibition has been installed in the main corridor leading to the services. Brightening the walls of the hospital, it is free and accessible to all. The educational action behind this international day bears witness to the commitment of the educational community to raise awareness of the founding text of the Convention on the Rights of the Child signed on November 20, 1989, as well as the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child by the Assembly.
The theme for this year 2022 is none other than "inclusion, for every child", a theme taken very seriously by the members of the Lil Hope association. Created last May, it aims to improve the reception conditions for children in the paediatrics/neonatology department. The various artistic works on offer were created by children from several schools: Marie-Amélie Leydet elementary school in Concordia, Jérôme Beaupère kindergarten in Sandy Ground, Evelina Halley kindergarten in Concordia and Collège-Lycée Victor Hugo of Concordia. The thirty 4th graders each made a drawing and the map of Saint-Martin is the result of the imagination of the children of the Sandy Ground nursery school. The other drawings are hand-signed by budding artists enrolled in the schools of Quartier d'Orléans or Marigot. As for the rest of the exhibition, it has been embellished with artistic creations prepared for previous editions.
The little ones admired their drawings with pride during a special visit and discovered those of the other little participants, to learn more about the rights that concern them directly. _VX
