Eliminating Harmful practices Affecting children :progress on policy practices since 2013

Target 16,2 of the sustainable Development goals seeks to realize the right of every child to live free from fear, negligence and all forms of abuse and exploration. The African Union launched a campaign to end child marriages in 2014,although it was meant to last for only 2 years it was extended to 2018. In 2019 a campaign strategy still with the same goal of ending child marriage for 2019 - 2023 period. This campaign still strives

AU has also adopted other campaigns to end harmful practices against children. In 2019 the AU adopted the 10 year action plan on the eradication of child labor, traffickings and modern slavery in Africa

-countries are working individually in Africa to end any negative chattera against the development of a child for example in Botswana we have the children 's Act of 2009 which is specifically designed to cater for the rights of children in Botswana

All these efforts are of no value if don't act and work together to teach, and train our children the fundamental principles of selfness, intergri, accountability and most important African Unity

Setswana sare lore lo ojwa lo sale metsi which literally translate to mould a plant while it is still young and supple. Let us teach our children to be each other's keepers it is the first step to a safer Africa free from harmful practices against our children

Africa Unite

My child, your child our children

Happy June 16

The soweto uprising, popularlh known as June 16 marks the commemoration of the Nation youth day in South Africa. You may ask yourself why we hold this day significant? and the answer is simply African solidarity one black man's struggle is also my struggle one man's success is my success. THAT IS THE AFRICA WE ARE TRYING TO BUILD.
This year's June 16 international theme is :Eliminating harmful practices Affecting Children :Progress on Policy and practice since 2013.

Nelson Mandela once said a true character of a society is revealed on how it treats it children. Is Africa a society that will be characterized by harmful practices against children,from trumatising, child hood marriages, son preference, female mutilai, breast ironing and virginity testing amongst others.

-According to UNFPA predictions, this year alone 4,1 million girls will be subjected to female ge***al mutilation
-Currently 33000girls under 18 will be forced into child marriage s to men older than them. These children will leave school and will be subjected to raising and supporting Children
-Neglect of daughters because of extreme preferences of sons over daughters leads to over 140 million missing children 's cases.

The question that arises is what are we Africans really doing to eliminate these practices which are very harmful children? What are we doing to cultivate, nurture, and continue to dedicate the spirit of togetherness, solidarity and unity that was displayed through demonstrations and protest which were led by black school children in South Africa on the morning of June 16 1976.

Initiatives and policies at both national and international level have benn put into place in efforts to Address harmful practices against children In Africa.

-Article 1(3)of the African committe of Experts on the rights and welfare of the child is directed to state parties. It commands state parties to discourage customs, traditions, cultural and religious practices inconsistent with human rights....

Today Marks the celebration of Africa Day..

•What is the significance of Africa Day for Africans?

Africa Day is an opportunity for Africans to remember that on May 25, 1963, 32 African countries signed the Charter of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), which later evolved into the African Union (AU). Only 30 of them were independent from colonial rule at the time. The charter called for greater unity among African countries. It supported the independence of African countries from colonialism and apartheid and promoted economic and political cooperation with a vision that all people on the continent would live freely and in prosperity.

The vision today remains the same as in 1963: for Africa to achieve inclusive and sustainable development and to unite to ensure the welfare and wellbeing of their peoples. However, one of the most strategic pillars to get there, the African Continental Free Trade Area, which is to raise millions of people out of poverty, is yet to be realized. The infrastructure is not there, and even if it was, the free movement of goods and people is going to be difficult to realize in an environment where many governments don’t respect the rights of their citizens, including freedom of movement, association, and expression.

Democratization is a process. Some African leaders try to push back against growing calls for greater accountability and political pluralism, claiming that development should come first, freedom and human rights second. Ironically, the same argument was put forward by Africa’s colonizers.

Today there is new momentum on the continent: Many young people feel empowered to protest in the streets, from Sudan to Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of Congo to Nigeria. The youth is speaking up. People are refusing to be subjugated. This is a consequence of investment in education and advances in digital technologies. These are young people who are well-educated, self-confident, have greater access to critical information, and express their frustrations using all tools available, including digital activism. For me this is a sign of progress. Of course, that is usually followed by repressive responses of autocratic leaders wanting to hold on to power. But we also have positive examples like Malawi where a dubious election was annulled by the courts following weeks of street protests.

•What kind of Africa do ordinary Africans want?

It’s important for African leaders to promote a free and prosperous Africa that belongs to all – the woman who sells tomatoes by the side of the road, the child that lives in a rural area, or the innovative entrepreneur who has just embarked on a venture-backed start-up company. An Africa that does not just benefit a tiny group of leaders and their entourage. An Africa where governments do not prevent a girl from finishing her education just because she falls pregnant. An Africa where leaders are not afraid of criticism, where freedom of expression is seen as an asset, not a threat, and where governments can be held to account. In short, an Africa that represents and caters for African aspirations for human rights and human dignity.
