Because YESTERDAY it should­n’t have hap­pened. TODAY we need to show what hap­pened and still hap­pens. NO MORE is what we yell when we fight and when we are faced with injus­tice. We want to be heard, we need hope, so that they will keep smil­ing… JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE CHILDREN.

Murals paint­ed in Pla­zo­le­ta La Vic­to­ria, a small square in the city of Buenos Aires, Argenti­na depict­ing var­i­ous kinds of abuse, vio­lence, ill treat­ment and exploita­tion which chil­dren and teenagers suf­fer all over the world.

Artist: Mirela Vega

Artist: Mirela Vega

Descrip­tion: “Chil­dren want to study and play, let’s say NO to child labour”. “I want to study, don’t make me work”. Every child has the right to have a home and a fam­i­ly and not to work, because chil­dren are not born for that, they are born to have a home, to live their child­hood to the full, to be healthy and have an education.

Artist: Jennifer Alfonzo

Mur­al against Exploita­tion Title: Child labour

Artist: Jen­nifer Alfonzo.

Descrip­tion: Chil­dren who grow up in the poor­est house­holds and in rur­al areas are more like­ly to be vic­tims of child labour. In gen­er­al, house­work is most­ly a girl’s duty. The mil­lions of girls who are domes­tic work­ers are exposed to exploita­tion and abuse. Work usu­al­ly inter­feres with a child’s edu­ca­tion. Mak­ing sure that all chil­dren go to school and receive qual­i­ty edu­ca­tion is the key to pre­vent child labour.

“Start chil­dren off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it”
Proverbs 22.6

Artist: Marga Panic

Mur­al against Abuse: Title: Treat­ment… Ill Treatment

Artist: Mar­ga Panic

Descrip­tion: Los difer­entes prob­le­mas de vio­len­cia requieren de dis­tin­tos tratamien­tos y las condi­ciones para tra­ba­jar­las deberían ser anal­izadas y desar­rol­ladas por todos los actores sociales de una comu­nidad. Debe­mos apren­der de los errores de nue­stro pasa­do históri­co, es nece­sario pro­pon­er­nos tratarnos bien, recu­peran­do la pal­abra y el diál­o­go como for­ma de comu­ni­cación y res­olu­ción de los con­flic­tos. Así como existe el mal­tra­to, puede exi­s­tir el buen tra­to. No debe­mos res­ig­narnos a vivir en un mun­do vio­len­to, debe­mos inten­tar trans­for­mar la cul­tura de la vio­len­cia en la cul­tura del BUEN TRATO.

Mur­al against Traf­fick­ing: Title: Slaves, Books by Ali­cia Peresutti.

Descrip­tion: Ali­cia Per­es­sut­ti resca­ta del olvi­do his­to­rias de vio­len­cia, pros­ti­tu­ción, de tra­ta de per­sonas, de muerte, con una sen­si­bil­i­dad que solo es posi­ble des­de el recor­ri­do que tiene en la prob­lemáti­ca, le ha puesto voz a cien­tos de niños, niñas, ado­les­centes y mujeres, que en las pági­nas de sus nov­e­las cobran vida y gri­tan sus his­to­rias. Cada rela­to está basa­do en viven­cias reales, que mere­cen ser leí­das, que mere­cen… ser contadas.

Artist: Paola Hippener

Mur­al against Beg­ging: Title: Traces of Reality

Artist: Pao­la Hippener

Descrip­tion: Creado­ra del Ayer Hoy No Más. Pao­la Nos cuen­ta que fue el comien­zo de su camino de vida, que no eligió… pero vivió. Pudo enten­der que AYER… no tenía que suced­er. El HOY tomo 10 imá­genes (10 fecha de su nacimien­to) las cuales siente y tomo como propias para mostrar que paso y sigue pasan­do. NO MAS es su gri­to de esper­an­za para que sigan son­rien­do y sien­do sim­ple­mente NIÑ@s.

Artist: Vinicius

Mur­al against Inequal­i­ty: Title: “Being able to learn”

Artist: Vini­cius

Descrip­tion: It refers to a child’s access to “an edu­ca­tion that devel­ops his or her per­son­al­i­ty, apti­tudes and phys­i­cal and men­tal skills to their max­i­mum poten­tial”. The main fig­ure has an open book on his fore­head, rep­re­sent­ing aware­ness, edu­ca­tion and school, and a but­ter­fly, the sym­bol of trans­for­ma­tion and freedom.

Artist: Mauro Ramírez

Mur­al Against Abuse and Vio­lence: Title: BASTA (ENOUGH)

Artist: Mau­ro Ramírez.

Descrip­tion: Mau­ro nos cuen­ta que esta ima­gen nace a través de un pedi­do de jus­ti­cia des­de el año 2013 por un hecho de abu­so infan­til ocur­ri­do en el jardín 901 de Pad­ua, Provin­cia de Buenos Aires, donde su sob­ri­na fue víc­ti­ma. Triste real­i­dad que no fue fácil de afrontar pero con el amor, con­tención de la famil­ia y pro­fe­sion­ales pudieron seguir ade­lante y con­tin­uar la lucha para que los cul­pa­bles reciban el cas­ti­go que mere­cen. Su inten­ción como artista fue sumarse a esta lucha y a través del arte expre­sar lo que sen­tía con una ima­gen que sea direc­ta y con la fuerza sufi­ciente para que pue­da lle­gar y trasmi­tir a todo el que la vea. No debe­mos hac­er oídos sor­dos a las pal­abras de los niños y niñas. Escuchar­los y aten­der a sus miedos y relatos, es un paso impor­tante para evi­tar y com­bat­ir los casos de abu­so y vio­len­cia que aten­tan con­tra su niñez. La niñez debe ser un mun­do de magia, jue­gos y colores.
