*Day of the African Child β 16 June*
Today, we stand with all children, especially street-connected children and victims of trafficking, whose rights, safety, and dignity are too often denied. Every child deserves protection, education, love, and the opportunity to reach their full potential.
As we commemorate the Day of the African Child, let us strengthen our commitment to preventing child trafficking, protecting vulnerable children, and creating communities where no child is forced to live or work on the streets.
Every child matters. Every child deserves a safe and hopeful future.
