Editing World Summit for Children (section)

=== World declaration ===
The World Declaration of the Survival, Protection, and Development of Children is subdivided into five categories: The Challenge, The Opportunity, The Task, The Commitment, and The Next Step. 
* The Challenge: To help countless children around the world who are exposed to dangers that hamper their growth and development. In particular those that are victims of [[poverty]], [[malnutrition]], [[war]], and [[disease]].
* The Opportunity: Declares that the fulfillment of the Summit goals will be an international co-operation, and leaders worldwide must implement the obligations agreed upon to on the [[Convention on the Rights of the Child]]. The [[Convention on the Rights of the Child]] was signed in 1989; it was the first international treaty to guarantee civil and political rights as well as economic, social, and cultural rights. The [[United States]] and [[South Sudan]] are the only countries who have not ratified the Convention. 
* The Task and The Commitment: Both of these serve to further explain the specific goals of the Summit.
** Improve Children's Health
** Improve Prenatal Health
** To strengthen the role and status of women 
** To provide educational opportunities
** To ameliorate the lives of homeless, refugee, disabled, and abused children 
** To protect children from the dangers of war
** To work for a global attack on poverty
* The Next Step: The adoption of The Plan of Action to specify how the World Declaration on the Survival, Protection, and Development of Children will be realized.
