Red Hand Day
A worldwide initiative to stop the use of Child Soldiers

Red Hand Day, 12 February



Feb-12: Red Hand Day in Geneva

The goal of Red Hand Day is to raise global awareness of the plight of child soldiers through public protests, demonstrations and other activities. The Red Hand symbol, has been used all over the world by the Coalition to Stop the Use of Child Soldiers and many civil society organizations to say no to the recruitment and use of child soldiers. We encourage activities involving Red Hands to attract media attention, as well as the attention of decision makers and opinion leaders.

For any other questions or information on issues related to child soldiers please visit the website of the »Coalition to Stop the Use of Child Soldiers«.
