MDPI Webinar | World Children’s Day, 20 November 2025
In order to commemorate World Children's Day (https://www.un.org/en/observances/world-childrens-day), MDPI is launching a special webinar to encourage researchers to join together, take action, and raise awareness of children’s rights.
World Children’s Day was first established in 1954 as Universal Children’s Day and is celebrated on 20 November each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and to improve children's welfare. World Children’s Day offers each of us an inspirational opportunity to advocate, promote, and celebrate children's rights, translating into dialogues and actions that will build a better world for children.
The webinar aims to encourage connections and collaboration among the international open access community to share and discuss their research findings. We are looking forward to seeing you at MDPI World Children’s Day 2025.
