Children’s Rights to Culture and Literature

We believe in every child’s right to culture. We base our believes on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

In the Swedish pavilion at the Belgrade Book Fair we organize a large number of activities for children, workshops and meetings with Swedish writers and illustrators. We will also have readings performed by a Serbian actor. Together with local partners around the Belgrade city we stress through different activities the importance of children’s right to meet high quality culture. learn more...
