Join our 'Red Hand Campaign' to gather one million 'red hands' – the symbol of the global campaign against the use of child soldiers. On 12 February 2010, ASIAN Geographic will present all the e-protest to the UN officials in New York which is the anniversary of the treaty in banning the use of child soldiers.
Let your voice be heard by sending us a personal message of protest. Together, we can impress authorities with the huge number of red hands and force them to act. |
