Senegal mobilises for the protection of children’s rights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vegetation and rainfall are abundant in the Kolda region and the wet season lasts from June to October. It is the least industrialised region in Senegal but has good agro-pastoral conditions. The 60,000 inhabitants are mostly migrants from surrounding countries, often without identity papers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PACOPE programmes set up in West Africa are based on an approach that gives families a sense of responsibility, avoiding dependence on SOS support to cover the needs of their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By helping parents\/guardians to develop their own income-generating activities and by offering them advice and moral support throughout the intervention, the programme increases their awareness, decision-making power and financial capacity. Parents\/guardians are given the opportunity to meet their children’s basic needs (e.g. paying for school, health, food, etc.) and to respect their rights to survival, development, protection and participation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

COMMUNITY STRUCTURES INVOLVED<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community structures made up of children and adults promote collective awareness of child protection and well-being and mobilise resources to help vulnerable children and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They regularly organise awareness-raising activities for adults and children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
