In Cameroon there is an un-ending inter-generational cycle of poverty which greatly affects the lives of girls from poor backgrounds and under-served communities. Most of whom are either orphans, victims of conflict, victims of different forms of gender based violence and high levels of dependency and school drop-outs.
Our DMF programmes to promote education have created platforms for us to partner with local communities and school institutions to run clubs in schools and local communities for the promotion of the rights of the girl child especially her right to education.
Promoting the realization of girls’ rights, we know that safe, inclusive and gender-responsive education is essential to future prosperity, gender equality, and ending to the inter-generational cycle of poverty.
In the last quarter we have launched one new school club in the town of Buea and continued activities with previous partner schools and also local communities.
We now have over 200 girls as members of our Her Voice Clubs who are in-turn running community development and empowerment programs among their peers.
We continually rely on goodwill donations and support from donors like you and will be happy to see you make a kind donation this day to support our efforts to empower the girl child.
