The weight of the future of humankind is on the shoulders of children. They might be in the early years of their lives now, but they have a whole world to build. From Kurdistan to all around the world, children share a sense of adventure-seeking and a genuine enthusiasm for life, although so many of them suffer difficult living conditions.
