As we celebrate the International Day of the African Child today, we reflect on the many issues affecting the African child including violence, poverty, illiteracy, neglect, and abuse. No child can thrive in an environment where there is a lack of love, peace and happiness. It is our collective responsibility to provide an enabling environment that is peaceful, vibrant, and healthy for ALL children irrespective of social background, ethnicity, physical ability, and religion to reach their full potential.
The African child is the future of Africa. We have to protect their rights.
Happy International Day of the African Child!
