"Many people are not aware that children have the right to express their opinions on issues that affect them and these views should be given due weight in accordance with the age and maturity of the child," said Dr. Yin Yin Nwe, UNICEF Representative in China. "This right is guaranteed by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and we are excited to be able to inform the public at Expo about it through the fascinating medium of children's short films." |

The two-day event, with support from the One Minute Foundation in the Netherlands, presents several videos from the archives of the One Minutes Juniors project, an international initiative that gives 12-20 year-old youth, especially those who are underprivileged or marginalized, the opportunity to have their voices heard through short films. |
