STARS including David Beckham, Ewan McGregor and Cat Deeley are supporting a campaign marking the 20th anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

They have chosen images from their visits to poor countries for a Unicef “photo pledge” campaign to highlight the anniversary.

Organisers hope to encourage people to submit a photo and a written pledge portraying one of the five fundamental rights from the convention – the right to survival, education, health, protection from harm and to be heard.

Photo pledges can be made at worldphotographyawards.org
