| description | "At the southern tip of the continent of Africa, a rich reward is in the making. This reward will not be measured in money.

The children must, at last, play in the open veld, no longer tortured by the pangs of hunger, or ravaged by disease, or threatened with the scourge of ignorance, molestation and abuse, and no longer required to engage in deeds whose gravity exceeds the demands of their tender years. In front of this distinguished audience, we commit the new South Africa to the relentless pursuit of the purposes defined in the World Declaration on the Survival, Protection and Development of the Child." |
