Changing the World: December 4 – Civil Rights Awareness and Action
The suggestion for today is about raising awareness of civil rights and actively seeking to do something about the rights of people that maybe being abused. Again, this is a very worthwhile cause and is something I would seek to do at every opportunity.

Changing the World: November 20 – Child Rights
The suggestion for today is about protecting the rights of children. Here in Australia it is sometimes said that children have more rights than their parents and to some extent this does appear to be a sound argument. More needs to be done to ensure parental rights in the area of discipline (note I didn’t say child abuse), etc.
However, throughout the world children face regular exploitation and abuse. The more that can be done to prevent this sort of abuse the better.

I will always seek to protect the rights of children wherever I see them threatened. This is something that I believe begins right where you live.
