The participants dye one hand with red
colour and press it on a long paper web (10 metres per
100 persons). Hang up the transparent on the front of
your building (school, church or organisation). Document
activities and events to join the global protest against
the use of children in war with text photos and drawings.
Be part of it!
To mark this commemoration day and to
raise global awareness of the plight of child soldiers,
on 12 of February 2006 starts up for the 3 rd time in
Germany the campaign “Red Hand”. With this symbol students
and adults express their protest against the use of children
in war. The use of children as soldiers has to be stopped
immediately! They need our assistance to return to their
own life.
We call all initiatives and organisations
worldwide to be part of the campaign.
We call all teachers worldwide to deal with the problem
of child soldiers at school and to take part in the campaign
Red Hand.
