Promoting opportunities for 240 children to participate in decisions affecting them and their communities and inspire them to actively engage and strengthen their capacities to act as children's rights advocates.
Only 1 out of 6 children in Kenya are safe. 9 out of 10 children from poor household fail to complete their basic education while between 10,000 and 30,000 children are caught up in commercial sex trade. The post election violence brought death, injuries and displacements to thousands of children. 240 Orphan and Vulnerable Children through participatory programs like Child Voices conferences & advocacy forums will engage leaders to make and implement child friendly policies and programs.
Organize meetings and training workshops for children and parents Organize Children Facilitators workshops Organize Children Voices Conferences participate community outreach on children rights Participate in National and International conference
There is greater recognition of child participation in policies, programmes and promotion of children's citizenship and their right to expression, information, decision-making and association.
I am so grateful to this club. Before I never used to know that it is my right to access education. My parents used to tell me to go to work and I could miss school for a month. That is now history,
