The children have been working together over the past few months to explore Children\u2019s Rights and most particularly, the right to education and the right to play.\u00a0 The theme of the workshop; \u2018Celebrating Diversity\u2019 appropriately reflects the varied mix of cultures, backgrounds and influences that set the basis for these workshops.<\/p>\n<p>During the 4 workshops, students planned and brainstormed their creations before getting creative on 4 panels, each measuring 2 x 1 m. The results were fantastic and all the kids involved had a great time. The paintings will be displayed at the Mith Samlanh Center in Phnom Penh. A big thanks to Peap, Bibi Chun and They!<\/p>\n<p>See more of the paintings <a href=\"http:\/\/friendsintl.wordpress.com\/2010\/04\/30\/celebrating-diversity-photos\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>International urban artists Samapeap Tarr &#8211; Peap (from NZ), Bibi Chun and They (both from Malaysia), recently brought their artistic talents to the streets of Phnom Penh, Cambodia with various events and workshops.\u00a0 One&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[41,8],"tags":[68,627,626,203],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/friends-international.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
