What are your dreams for the world's children?

As part of our Speak Up For Children campaign, we asked our supporters a simple question: what are your dreams for children? Your dreams for the world's children - or if you’re a parent or grandparent, your dreams for your own children or grandchildren.

  1. What are your dreams for the world's children? Tweet us here or on Facebook: facebook.com/Unicef.uk #speak up
  2. The response was amazing, with supporters concerned about lots of different issues. From education....
  3. @unicef_uk My Dream for them is that every child should be treated equally with proper education food and love.They2all have the same right.
  4. My dream for the world's children: a place where all children can grow up to fulfil their full, unlimited potential in life. Where children can go to school, with access to education, that is safe, supportive of their needs and encourages them to grow and learn. I would particularly like to highlight that in some parts of the world, children cannot access their education due to repeated natural disasters, caused by global warming. If this isn't failing our children, I don't know what is! Lets hope this gets addressed at the Rio Earth Summit. I’ve spoken up for children, will you? bit.ly/speakup-unicef
  5. @unicef_uk @SnehaHossain Our dream is that all children of the world should have an equal opportunity to access education
  6. My dream for children: is that every child will have access to an education, to vital vaccinations and to a home, regardless of money. UNICEF are working to give every child around the world the opportunities to be whoever and whatever they want to be. UNICEF are speaking up for children, but more importantly will you? www.unicef.org.uk/shf
  7. ....to health...

  8. @unicef_uk love, health and happiness! And thank God for charities and fabulous causes like yours on a mission to make it happen! :)
  9. I dream that every child has the best possible health care and the chance to go to school. Every year, more than 7.5 million children die before their fifth birthday. This is wrong and a tragic waste of human potential. We can prevent most of these deaths of young children. This June, the Rio Earth Summit will discuss the future of our planet, but children do not appear on the agenda. How can we talk about the future without talking about children? This is why I asked Nick Clegg to speak up for children at the Summit. Clegg can help prevent these needless deaths. Clegg can help children realise their dreams. I’ve spoken up for children. Please will you? bit.ly/speakup-unicef
  10. ...to safety...
  11. My dream for the world's children is to be safe and free from war, poverty, ill-treatment and neglect. I’ve spoken up for children, will you? bit.ly/speakup-unicef
  12. .@unicef_uk the dream is for every kid in the world to have shelter, sustenance, education and above all, to be free from fear #speakup
  13. @unicef_uk to have dreams and hopes for their future instead of fear of dying.
  14. @unicef_uk that each and every one has access to basic human rights; clean water, food, education, love n a safe life #speakup
  15. ...to equality, opportunity, and the ability to enjoy all their rights.
  16. @unicef_uk that every child will have the ability to able to be a success in life without anything stoping them but themselves #speakup
  17. Many of my closest friends have just had their first children and they are just as important to me as are their parents. I wish for them to be able to enjoy a fair life in which equal opportunity is a core value.
  18. @unicef_uk My Dreams is that every child should be in a blissful environment where they can be able to exercise their rights.
  19. @unicef_uk That they're born equal and stay equal. With every basic human right met. Simple, really.
  20. Want to help make these dreams a reality? Thousands of our supporters have already asked UK Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg to Speak Up for Children at the Rio Earth Summit in June, where big decisions will be made about their future. Join them, and help us to put children at the heart of the summit: bit.ly/speakup-unicef
