10CHILDREN is a global project taking place in 10 different countries all over the world. Through art we work to raise awareness of children and youth growing up in underprivileged circumstances. The aim is to create involvement and awareness from a general audience, regional and international leaders, as well as non-governmental organisations and political institutions, to evoke necessary and concrete actions to give these children a fair chance in life.

In each country we focus on a subject that specifically touches the life’s of the children and is part of the circumstances that undermine the chance of a healthy and meaningful life. We focus on the following topics: poverty, hunger, health, obesities as a phenomenon of poverty, lack of education, no housing or parents, living in and with war, female suppression (child brides, rape, underaged mothers, mutilation), child labour, statelessness, drugs related violence, discrimination and exclusion. Although we do not underestimate the heaviness and seriousness of these topics, we focus on the strength of the children, their power to survive, their hopes and their dreams. In every country a different story of a child is developed, with a different personal, social and political background. Together the art projects of all the 10 countries represent the stories of the most disadvantaged children of our time and will break the silence that surrounds the circumstances under witch so many children are growing up.
