Children can be masters of their future

Watch young people sing passionately about standing up for their rights

We believe children and youth should be empowered to use their voices and stand up for their rights, just like the kids from Utah’s One Voice Children’s Choir singing Imagine Dragon’s “Believer” in the video below.

“Don’t you tell me what you think that I can be; I’m the one at the sail, I’m the master of my sea,” they sing.

We encourage young people to use the knowledge and skills they learn to make a difference for their future and for those who can’t speak up for themselves.

Watch the children perform — reminding us they should be seen and heard.

About Children Believe

Children Believe works globally to empower children to dream fearlessly, stand up for what they believe in — and be heard. For 60+ years, we’ve brought together brave young dreamers, caring supporters and partners, and unabashed idealists. Together, we’re driven by a common belief: creating access to education — inside and outside of classrooms — is the most powerful tool children can use to change their world.
