CHILDREN'S DAY 2025: CHR COMMENDS KANO STATE GOVERNMENT'S COMMITMENT TO CHILD PROTECTION, URGES CONTINUED ACTION ๐
I am an advocate of effective implementation of the Kano State Child Protection law! ๐
The engagement provided a platform to validate budget data, deepen understanding of sector-wide approaches, and identify key advocacy priorities to improve funding and accountability.
The engagement brought together stakeholders from government institutions, civil society organizations, international NGOs, and the media, fostering meaningful dialogue on family planning and maternal health financing.
The effective implementation of the Kano State child protection law is essential as it aims to protect and secure our children! ๐
CHR supports this! ๐ช
