If you stay friends with Tymon now...
you're going to be friends with the Polish president.
That would be quite nice.
And he's back. This is Kaj. When he was 14, he was playing video games...
at least 16 hours per day. Dude.
This is the other Kaj. When he was 14, he blew up a postbox using illegal fireworks.
Come on. That's right.
And this is Tymon, born in Poland.
When he was 14, he was in court. Without a lawyer, but with a big mission:
Giving kids a voice, both in court and outside of it.
This hero succeeded and actually changed the law.
Tymon is now 16 and a nominee for the International Children's Peace Prize 2017.
Thank you very much.
Man, it's cold. -No kidding.
We're back at Schiphol, ready to fly to Poland for KidsRights.
We'll be meeting one of the final three nominees for the Children's Peace Prize.
And I get to come, too. Thanks. -You're welcome.
KidsRights works with children to create a world in which their rights are safeguarded.
They believe these rights will be observed better...
if kids get a say in things that concern them. -That's what I believe also.
Another thing KidsRights believes is that everyone is able to move the world.
The Children's Peace Prize is a hugely important platform to give children a voice.
You can win it by courageously fighting for children's rights.
That's right. Every year, the young winner inspires kids...
but older people too, of course, to take action themselves.
Great. -Great indeed. Let's fly.
I can't wait. -Let's go.
Your suitcase. -Oh, right.
Kaj and Kaj are flying to Warsaw, Poland, to visit Tymon.
He fights for kids' legal rights.
Sounds complicated, and it kind of is, but it's very important, really.
Thanks to Tymon, kids can access public information...
have a say when their parents get divorced, and take legal action. Cool, right?
He's about to tell Kaj and Kaj how it all began.
There he is. The big man. Kaj. Nice to meet you.
I'm Kaj, nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you too.
How are you? -I'm fine, thanks.
You don't have it cold? -'You don't have it cold?'
He's laughing at my English. But I try my best.
Where are we today? -This is the Warsaw City Court.
This is where many of my cases take place.
But you're 16. That's very young. -I think so...
but it's never too early to start working for society in general.
Let's go inside. It's very cold.
It's quite a boring building, right? -It is.
It is quite. Thank you, Tymon.
But no one comes here for fun. -That's true.
Welcome.
So normally you stand here? -That's the witness stand.
When you testify, you stand there. -OK.
Do I need to take off my hat? -If you were in the courtroom for real...
you would need to take it off. -Let's make if official.
I now declare this interview opened.
This is not a normal place for a 16-year-old to sit. Do you come here often?
Not that often, but I need to come here if I want to fight for my rights.
Take us back to when you were 14. How did this all start?
I was curious about my family tree. I wanted to know about my ancestors.
But I was denied publicly available information, because I was underage.
I found that illogical and decided to do something about it.
I wrote a formal request. -What did they tell you?
'Go play with your PlayStation. Leave us alone. You're too young'?
They asked me to swear I was an adult. But I couldn't, because I'm not.
So they didn't give me anything. -Wow. And then you took it to court?
That's correct. -How did the judge look at you?
In my very first case, they dismissed my complaint.
They said they believed I did not have that right.
So I had to move on and take my case to the Supreme Court.
But the Supreme Court also reached a negative decision...
so the case finished in Poland, but not in general...
because now it's in Strasbourg, in the European Court of Human Rights.
But what if they dismiss it, too? -I hope they don't.
Otherwise, we have a serious problem with human rights in the context of children.
But I'm very happy that my actions have shown my friends and colleagues...
that they do have a right to change things. That's very important.
So this is Tymon, a regular boy with special talents.
He goes to school, but spends his free time fighting for and debating children's rights.
Via social media, but also through events like the one he's taking Kaj and Kaj to.
Oh, and at 16, he's also the advisor to the Minister of Digital Affairs. What?
Yeah, man. -You're a real changemaker.
One petition by one young person to the Parliament could make a change.
Well, kudos. That's an amazing feat at 16 years old.
Where are we going now? -To Ilawa.
It's a small city in the northern part of Poland.
We're going to a conference. I'm going to be a panellist there.
I will take part in a debate about youth participation and engagement in politics.
You're going to be debating. -Speaking with others, yes.
Why are you walking so fast? -We're in a hurry, man.
I think Tymon's up now.
This is the moment. Go, Tymon.
Nice, man. That was cool.
Are you finished? -Yeah, we're done. Just a group photo now.
A group photo? Can we be in it? -OK, let's squeeze in.
Say cheese.
Inspiring kids, Kaj. -For real.
Let's grab a beer. We're done for today. Let's go.
Quite the Christmas tree. -It is.
It's a brand new day, fresh and fruity. -More fresh and chilly then fruity, though.
Let's catch up with Tymon. -Here he is.
Hi. -How are you, man?
Nice to see you. Yesterday was a long and busy day.
So we're going to explore the Old Town of Warsaw now?
That's correct. -Drink some coffee?
That, too. And you will meet my friends during lunch.
How many friends? -Two of them.
OK. -Let's go.
What's this?
Who's that? Is that your friend? -I don't think so.
You can take a photo. -No, I won't take a picture with Death.
We're going to eat a traditional Polish dish. -What is typically Polish?
Pierogi. -Pierogi?
Kaj. Nice to meet you. -Hi, nice to meet you.
So what is this? -These are pierogi.
Girls, you're friends of Tymon's? -Yes, we are.
Nice. -I confirm.
Sorry? -I confirm.
I see Tymon as a very smart kid.
Do you see him the same way? -Yes. Everyone does.
When you look at Tymon, 16 and having already implemented a nationwide law...
don't you want to get involved too? Do something for your country, the world?
Yes, it's actually quite inspiring. He went to the same school as we did...
and it's motivating to see that a normal 16-year-old...
is doing the best he can...
and that it's possible to make big, big changes in laws.
So girls, what do you think Tymon will be in the future?
Maybe a politician. Or even the president.
President Tymon. -Tymon for president.
Many people want me to be president. -Seriously?
So if you stay friends with Tymon now, you'll be friends with the Polish president.
That would be quite nice.
Tymon, I want to thank you for having us...
and showing us, showing me, a world I didn't really know.
I want to thank you for coming to Poland. Thank you for the very nice visit.
This documentary was a lot different than the last two you saw...
but I don't think we should underestimate...
the incredible things that Tymon has accomplished at only 16.
He literally changed the law, and that's amazing.
It's four in the afternoon now, pitch dark and icy cold. I say we go back to Holland.
And go sit by the fire. -Tymon, give me a big hug.
Thank you, bro. You're a cool dude. -See you later.
See you. -Thank you.
