The global community committed to #EndFGM by 2030. With less than 10 years left, countries must accelerate efforts to ensure that this commitment becomes a lived reality for women and girls. #EndFGM
#GES2021 has put powerful young people on the world stage & it’s vital for leaders to hear our stories of exclusion from #education. But young people have been organising themselves for 100+ years! Youth-led & representative youth orgs need to be heard. Nothing for us without us!
Lower-income countries need a fair share of income if they are ever to achieve the #SDGs! Thank you @lynda_eunice from @RaisingTeensUg1 #Uganda for representing the shared belief of youth activists everywhere! #HLPF2021#SDG10
It’s important that the law enforcement body @PoliceUg implements the laws in place to protect children. Many girls’ dreams and lives are shuttered to this vice and not much is done. We need to see the law protecting girls as it should. @AKasingye@aasu_72@RebeccaKadagaUG
Uganda has good laws& policies that are not enforced&implemented. If these laws were enforced&implemented, we would have an end&reduction in the occurrence of sexual violence. Defilement is criminal, it’s sad that many perpetrators walk freely. @AKasingye@aasu_72@nankunda20
Some parents send their daughters to shops at night without money& expect girls to return home with groceries.” This is an indirect way of forcing girls into early relationships &marriages for money. This must stop! @aasu_72@100millionUS@vowforgirls@nankunda20@UNESCO
I joined @RaisingTeensUg1 today for a school outreach in St Kizito Bembe primary school to speak to the girl child and encourage her to keep in school. I’m pleased to know that all the girls in P.7 returned to school. #LearningNeverStops@nankunda20@aasu_72@100millionUS
