How often do we talk about our values in Europe and how often do we still or again experience that they are not taken seriously. But without values, without solidarity and without human sympathy this great project of peace is worthless literally. I think the idea of a European children\u2019s capital is very important and therefore I am a founding member of this association. Children need our help and support all over Europe. And they will develop this great idea one day, if we involve them in time and if we give them the chance to not only learn about the European idea at school, but to experience it first-hand in the real world. The combination of giving pupils the chance of an international encounter and at the same time promoting contests of European cities, taking children seriously, giving them chances and a good future that way, that is what moves and actuates this association. I know from many former colleagues in the European Parliament that they support this idea. I hope that many people will join us, so that the decision makers will listen to our wish to do something for the children in Europe.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av-center-align-columns'  class='avia-section main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-bg-style-scroll  avia-builder-el-40  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_one_full   container_wrap sidebar_right' style=' '  ><div class='container' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-814'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div class='flex_column_table av-equal-height-column-flextable -flextable' ><div class=\"flex_column av_one_half  flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle av-zero-column-padding first  avia-builder-el-41  el_before_av_one_third  avia-builder-el-first  \" style='border-radius:0px; ' id=\"av-center-align-columns\" ><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>&#8220;I find the initiative for a European Children&#8217;s Capital so interesting because it&#8217;s an opportunity to raise awareness of children&#8217;s rights and thus make the adult world aware of its obligations.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  style='height:25px' class='hr hr-invisible   avia-builder-el-43  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  av_inherit_color '  style='color:#5767a5; '  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Herman van Veen<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><div style=\"text-align: center;\">The Dutch artist Herman van Veen is a songwriter, singer, writer and co-founder of the Dutch Lot Foundation and the Herman van Veen Foundation Germany.
