Why We Do This Livestream

November 20 is World Children’s Day, commemorating the adoption of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. Among the rights it recognizes is every child's right to be heard.

Since 2017, Six Seconds has celebrated this day through the POP-UP Festival, inspired by a simple belief: children thrive when they develop their emotional intelligence.

At POP-UP, there is no traditional teacher. Instead, children and adults explore themselves, friendship, and community through emotional intelligence activities, learning together.

Listening is more than a skill. It is a choice we make together — as families, schools, and communities — to recognize children's voices, respect their perspectives, and create spaces where every child can be heard.
