Memorandum by Kurdish Children in Syria
To the United Nations' Childhood Organisation in Syria
Mr Muhammad Ben Edriss El-Elmi
Representative of the UN Childhood Organisation in Syria
Director of the UNISEF Office in Damascus
Dear Sir,
You are aware that the General Assembly of the UN issued the declaration of the child's rights on 20/11/1959 (to enable him to enjoy a happy childhood, for his benefit and the benefit of the society…), and Syria was one of the first countries to sign it. On the basis of the legal and ethic requirements of that declaration, we the Kurdish children in Syria appeal to you to intervene with the Syrian government to respect its own agreement and signature, and to protect our childhood and our rights as stated in that declaration from the discrimination practices carried out within the framework of a chauvinistic policy towards our Kurdish people in Syria.
At the time that the declaration stated the necessity (for a child to enjoy all the rights without discrimination because of race, colour, sex, language, religion, political views, ethnic origin or social background…) and also stated the necessity (for a child to be protected from any practices that may result in racial or any other kind of discrimination…), the deprivation remains the basic standard in dealing with the Kurdish children that are born with discrimination attached to them with birth and receives the shock of a bitter reality involving all Kurdish families in general.
Although respect for human rights including that of children is regarded one of the basic standards of the civilised progress those basics cannot find applications for our Kurdish people among whom children are deprived even from nationality or belonging to a family!! At the time that the declaration of child rights states that (he should have the right to have a name, nationality and surname…), the nationality has been withdrawn from a quarter of a million of Kurdish people among whom there are 100 thousand children born to parents deprived of nationality according to the census carried out in the province of Hasaka on 5/10/1962. They were all classified as foreigners in a precedent never seen before in relations between a state and its citizens. In addition to that there are large numbers of children unregistered born to a father deprived of nationality and a mother who is a citizen as the official courts would not allow their marriage to be registered.
The Syrian authorities also neglect others articles of the agreement regarding child's rights by insisting on the Arabisation of the names of Kurdish children and preventing them from studying their mother tongue although the declaration states (children from ethnic minorities or aboriginal populations have the right to freely enjoy their own culture, religion and language…). We hope that through you our voice reaches the Syrian authorities demanding justice as innocent victims of discrimination and persecution and to stop all racist policies and projects that confiscated our rights as children of persecuted people in away concerning humanity and childhood everywhere.
Our best regards
Kurdish children in Syria
