Know your rights - and claim them book cover
© Know Your Rights and Claim - Jointly written by Amnesty International, Angelina Jolie and Geraldine Van Bueren QC © Amnesty

Amnesty’s book 'Know Your Rights and Claim Them' is for young people to learn about and claim their rights, no matter who they are or where they live.

Co-authored by Amnesty with Angelina Jolie and Geraldine Van Bueren QC, one of the drafters of the landmark UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the book explains child rights, their importance and how they apply in the real world. It also highlights the work of young activists, and shows first steps in peaceful protest.

With the book, these Know Your Rights teaching resources can help promote discussion about child rights and encourage activism for young people.
