Welcome!

Imagine a new idea as vital as democracy.
Now imagine helping it spread quickly throughout the world!
Child Honouring is one such idea, an idea whose time has come.

We invite you to be a part of the global movement that views honouring children as the best way to create sustainable, peacemaking societies.

Nelson Mandela, The Dalai Lama, Graca Machel are among the growing chorus of luminaries calling for a world fit for children.

The Centre for Child Honouring—on Salt Spring Island, BC, Canada—is dedicated to advancing Child Honouring as a universal ethic, an organizing principle for societal transformation.

Child Honouring is the only social revolution in history with the child at its heart. It stresses “the primacy of early years” as key to activating the powerful and positive potential of our species.

Supporting the Earth Charter and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, A Covenant for Honouring Children is a poetic declaration of our duty respect children, “to honour their caring ideals as the heart of being human”.

The Child Honouring principles offer a guide for living as conscious beings. They constitute the basis for a multi-faith consensus on societal renewal.

At this critical point in human history, we invite you to join the Centre’s work to co-create a vast change in the human paradigm.
