Today marks 26 years of celebrating the International Day of the African Child. This day honours the children who participated in the Soweto Uprising on June 16, 1976, and raises awareness of the continuing need for improvement of the education provided to African children.
Forty-one years down the road, the issues those children fought, bled and died for remain salient. This year’s theme: “The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development for Children in Africa: Accelerating protection, empowerment and equal opportunity” aptly captures this.
