CÉLÉBRATION DE LA JOURNÉE INTERNATIONALE DE LA JEUNESSE

La Journée Internationale de la Jeunesse 2025 a été célébrée sous le thème : actions locales des jeunes pour les ODD et au-delà. À cette occasion, RuPEN Cameroun a reçu la visite du Délégué D'arrondissement pour la Jeunesse et l'Éducation Civique accompagné de parlementaires de la jeunesse pour les Bamboutos et d'autres collaborateurs.

Au cours de cette célébration, les stagiaires du centre RuPEN ont eu l'opportunité de présenter leurs travaux réalisés en prélude à la célébration de cette Journée, parmi lesquels des sensibilisations communautaires sur des thèmes tels que la délinquance juvénile, l'utilisation de la technologie, la sexualité et l'implication communautaire des jeunes, entre autres.

Lors de sa prise de parole, le député jeune pour les Bamboutos a exhorté les jeunes à être proactifs et à adopter l'esprit entrepreneurial afin de créer des emplois plutôt que d'attendre tout du gouvernement.

Cette célébration s'est clôturée par les propos de Mme le Délégué qui a exprimé sa satisfaction quant aux initiatives prises par RuPEN pour autonomiser la communauté, en particulier les jeunes de l'arrondissement des Bamboutos. Elle a réaffirmé son engagement continu à soutenir toutes les actions menées par les jeunes en vue de créer un impact positif dans la société.

La Journée internationale de l'enfant africain est célébrée chaque année le 16 juin. Elle a été saturée en 1991 par l'Organisation de l'unité africaine (aujourd'hui Union africaine) en mémoire du massacre de Soweto en 1976, en Afrique du Sud.

Origine

Le 16 juin 1976, des milliers d'enfants noirs sont descendus dans les rues de Soweto pour protester contre la mauvaise qualité de l'éducation et contre l'imposition de l'afrikaans comme langue d'enseignement. La répression fut violente : des centaines d'enfants furent tués ou blessés par les forces de l'ordre sud-africaines.

Objectifs de la journée

⭐ Rendre hommage aux enfants tués à Soweto.
⭐ Sensibiliser à la situation des enfants africains aujourd'hui.
⭐ Promouvoir les droits de l'enfant,
notamment l'accès à une éducation de qualité, à la santé, à la protection et à la participation.

On the occasion of the International Day of Education, the civil society organization Rural Population Empowerment Network (RuPEN) reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to fostering sustainable development and bridging the inequality gap by supporting underprivileged communities.

As part of this year’s celebration, RuPEN through its volunteers, made a donation of instructional materials to the “Ecole Publique de Bamougong Chefferie Groupe 2” in the Bamboutos division, West region, Cameroon. The initiative aims to enhance access to quality education for children in underserved areas, equipping them with the tools they need to succeed academically and beyond.
At RuPEN we believe that education is the foundation of sustainable development, and by empowering young learners today, we are investing in a brighter, more equitable future for all. This donation reflects RuPEN’s belief that no child should be left behind in the quest for a better, more sustainable world.

As we mark this special day, RuPEN calls on individuals, communities, and stakeholders to join hands in ensuring that education becomes a universal right, not a privilege. Together, we can empower the next generation to lead with knowledge, resilience, and purpose.
Let’s continue to make education accessible and meaningful for every child, everywhere. 🌍📚 # UNESCO
