CIESPI is delighted to introduce this video that shows children from throughout Brazil drawing about and commenting on how COVID has impacted their lives. CIESPI was pleased to play a major role in both starting the Circle of Action (Ciranda de Ações) in the National Coalition on Early Childhood (RNPI) and producing the video. Listening to, eliciting, and disseminating children’s voices has long been a critical concern of the Institute which believes that children (and youth) are the best and vital informants on what is happening in their lives. We are most grateful to all the children who took part in the project.
