Book Club on Children’s Rights

The Book Club on Children’s Rights is a monthly interactive space for teenagers aged 14–16 to read, reflect, and discuss stories related to the rights of children across the world. Each session focuses on a specific theme — such as the right to education, freedom of expression, or protection from exploitation — and is built around a powerful book that brings real-world challenges to life.

The club is part of the OSCE Academy’s broader Children’s Rights Initiative and is designed to inspire young minds, build empathy, and develop a deeper understanding of human rights through literature.

What We Do
Read and discuss books based on true stories about children and their rights. Explore big questions through debates, quizzes, creative projects, and role-plays. Create a safe and open space where every voice matters. Encourage reflection on how these stories connect to our own lives and communities

Raise awareness of children’s rights among young people. Encourage critical thinking and compassion through reading. Develop skills in communication, argumentation, and self-expression. Create a community of thoughtful, informed young readers.
How It Works
One book per month. In-person meetings at the OSCE Academy (Room 11, 2nd Floor). Sessions last about 90 minutes and include both discussion and hands-on activities. Books are provided in accessible formats (including translated excerpts).
Books can change minds. And young people can change the world
