School Awareness Train Continues…

SCA’s advocacy train visited four schools – St. Louis Jubilee JHS, Vicande International, Kwadaso SDA (A), and Kwadaso SDA (B) from March 17th to March 22nd. The train’s aim was to raise awareness about promoting child rights and equal opportunities for children in street and other vulnerable situations. The students were educated on child rights, child abuse, types and symptoms of abuse, child protection, and the appropriate authorities to report abuse cases to. #SCA #advocacytrain #childrights #equalopportunities #education #childabuse #childprotection

During the visit, the team noted that some of the school’s Girl Child Coordinators had already educated female students occasionally on sexual abuse and other forms of abuse. This was evident when the team encountered students singing a song about child abuse that had been composed by the school. The team also engaged with both students and teachers, who asked insightful questions and were provided with informative responses. #SCA #advocacytrain #childabuseprevention #education #awareness #sexualabuseprevention

The education provided during the visit was highly beneficial, and the school authorities expressed their willingness to invite the advocacy train regularly for more education on child rights and child protection. This is a positive indication that the message is spreading, and more individuals are becoming aware of the importance of promoting child rights and protecting vulnerable children. #SCA #advocacytrain #childrights #childprotection #awareness #education
