The latest blogs from Aide et Action staff and partners around the world.
Since 2017, Aide et Action and the SNCF Foundation have worked together in favor of migrant children in India by guaranteeing them access to education and to their rights. But with the arrival of COVID-19, our project has had to adapt and offer new responses facing the emergence of new needs.
On the occasion of International Day of Education (24 January), and as the sector experiences an unprecedented crisis, Aide et Action is launching an information and awareness campaign based on emojis. A universal “language” to remind the world that even today 258 million children are still deprived of education. To save the future of entire generations, urgent action is needed!
Faced with the risk of dropping out of school, Aide et Action and its partner Plan International Benin are proposing the implementation of innovative and adapted monitoring tools to practice an inclusive educational strategy.
The political and security crisis that Mali has been experiencing since 2012 has seriously affected the country’s education system. As a result, thousands of children do not have access to quality education. To respond to this problem, Aide et Action and its partners are developing educational alternatives.
Around the world, the COVID-19 crisis has forced countries to close their borders to protect populations from the virus. But despite its health benefits, this decision has caused great economic hardship cross-border workers whose survival on trade and free movement was suddenly interrupted. Now, they are facing destitution.
Although guaranteed by the International Convention on the Rights of the Child since its ratification by more than 192 states thirty-one years ago, the right to education is still denied today to more than 258 million children who are among the most vulnerable in the world. A shame as we celebrate the 31st Day of the Rights of the Child today.
