A group of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) has joined forces to eradicate harmful traditional practices targeted at children in Moyale, Marsabit county.

The organisations - Strategies for Northern Development (SND) and Terre des Hommes Netherlands (TdH NL) have combined efforts on a three-year project to eliminate practices such as child marriage, female genital mutilation (FGM), and child labour.
