Recently, in Curitiba Brazil, the “Child Disarmament” campaign aimed to take hundreds of violent toys from the hands of young people.
On April 15, students from the Centennial Adventist College gathered to participate in the “Child Disarmament” campaign. The secretary of security for the State of Paraná chose the school to be one of the campaign’s headquarter schools. The campaign encourages children to exchange toy weapons or violent games, for a ball. The idea is for them to have new experiences in a more healthy way.
