The Power of Play: Children and young people’s
Call to Action

This Call to Action is the culmination of extensive global online consultations and focus group discussions with over 10,000 children. Their voices have spoken loud and clear, providing invaluable insights and recommendations to the UN, governments, civil society organisations, parents, and businesses.

The findings highlight the critical role of play in enhancing children's learning and healthy development. From fostering creativity and problem-solving skills to promoting mental well-being and social interaction, play is fundamental to a child's holistic development.
