Happy childhood - A child friendly graphic system for the Convention on the Rights of the Child
Abstract: “ All children have the right to know their rights. Adults should know about these rights and help children to learn about them, too.” UNCRC - Article 42 This project is a graphic system for the UNCRC based on character illustration. Although the Convention was made for children it is difficult to understand and somewhat boring for them. How to make healthy culture that is sweeter for children? The idea for this project came from the commercial character merchandising system and the desire to draw clear lines of demarcation between market oriented child culture and this project. Here I focused on the key words - storytelling and usability for communicating with the contemporary child. I illustrated symbols for 17 articles as a graphic platform, and designed education and campaign applications to present playful learning experiences and to enhance social awareness. Hopefully, children will gain a real sense of ownership of their rights and many can enjoy healthy culture with my project. Keywords
