Child labour is a daily reality for 41 million children acrpss Eastern and Southern Africa.

Hazardous work severely reduces school attendance for both boys and girls.

But we can break this cycle - by protecting children, strengthening families & keeping every child in school.

[UNICEF Africa @UNICEFAfrica]

🎉Cheers to a new year of possibilities.

Education, health, and protection are not dreams – they are rights.

Join us in making 2026 the year we break barriers and build futures for all children.

💙Here is to a future full of possibilities.
