UNICEF Hungary lights Budapest buildings blue for World Children’s Day – PHOTOS

To mark World Children’s Day, UNICEF Hungary has launched a campaign entitled Face the Problem to help children struggling with depression and other mental problems.

Children experiencing difficulties can be helped if their problems are not treated as taboos and asking for help is not regarded as something to be ashamed of, the organisation said in a statement on Saturday.

One out of seven in the 10-19 age group reports frequent anxiety, while almost one in five reported persistent depression and a lack of motivation.
