• Asked for the support of local women groups through empowerment agendas. A word from the school director: • Shortage of modern classrooms; 6 against possible 8 classrooms structures are available. Meaning some pupils are either studying under trees or inside poor, mud-built structures. • He called upon volunteering fund raisers to help build two modern classrooms in the local primary school so that pupils can study under clean and conducive environment. A word from the local community groups: • Providing holistic prevention and response to the protection issues experienced by children in poor communities (both rural and urban slums), and working in partnership with children, their families, local authorities to strengthen child protection systems and community based mechanisms. • Child Friendly Spaces in emergencies should be created, reunifying separated and unaccompanied children with their families (OVCs and Street children) • Developing public awareness campaigns against child trafficking, child marriage and other forms of rights violations. • Developing and piloting training programs for social workers and caregivers to provide supportive care to families and children. • Advocating for more effective national protection policies and child welfare reform.
