To contribute to the circulation, training and promotion of children and adolescent's rights.

Bice was founded on 17 January 1948 in response to the call made by Pope Pius XII to assist children harmed by war. From 1959 onwards, the Bice took an active role in work to prepare the Declaration on the Rights of the Child, then joined the United Nations working group to draft the International Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC). It progressively developed field projects to defend children's rights in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe and Western Europe. In these tasks it uses an innovative approach to child development, based on the capacity children have to show resilience, participate in society and be involved in their community.
