Children from across Harare converged at the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation in Highlands on Sunday, to mark the International Children's Day of Broadcasting amid excitement as some of the children went on air in a dream broadcast session.

It was all fun for the children when they graced the studios at the broadcasting centre to mark the International Children's Day of Broadcasting ICDB, sponsored by the United Nations International Children's Fund-UNICEF.

A Producer for the National FM radio station, Retsepile Stoboli said the ICDB is the only day children take to the mic and make live broadcasts not only for entertainment, but to air some of their concerns and challenges in daily life.

The day came amid conflicts in many parts of the world, presenting a gloomy picture of life to the young children and an uncertain future as adults engage in conflicts and wars that have put lives of children at risk.

Children's rights have been observed and promoted since Independence in Zimbabwe through the popular education for all policy adopted by government, the right to health for children and campaigns against child abuse.
