Which of the following year is observed as the International Year of the Child ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
The UN General Assembly proclaimed 1979 the International Year of the Child, marking twenty years since the Declaration of the Rights of the Child (1959). Work begun that year led to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, 1989.
1959 is the year of the Declaration itself; 1949 and 1969 have no such designation.
