Global Child Forum

International Children’s Peace Prize

We are proud to have co-organised the 21st International Children’s Peace Prize together with KidsRights Foundation. 

On November 19, we honoured young changemakers who are boldly advancing children’s rights around the world. Through this annual event, Global Child Forum highlighted the vital role businesses can play in supporting youth leadership – strengthening our shared commitment to a sustainable, just, and rights-based future for all children.

Setting the scene for action

Our forums are the only large-scale multi-stakeholder platforms that focus on how business can address children’s rights while building brand value.

The first Global Child Forum was held at the Stockholm Royal Palace in 2010 and since then we have hosted many of these prestigious events.

We gather global leaders as well as experts, NGOs, government and academia, to catalyse the discussion on how new business models can be developed to tackle the growing challenges facing children today.
