Day of the African Conference

The Day of the African Child (DAC) is commemorated annually on June 16th in honor of children who participated in the Soweto Uprising of 1976. DAC is of significance to African children and calls for serious introspection and commitment towards addressing the numerous challenges facing children across the continent. Governments, NGOs, and other multi-sectoral stakeholders gather to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the full realization of the rights of children in Africa.
This year we are celebrating DAC under the theme: “Promoting and Protecting Children’s Rights in Schools”

Good School Toolkit

Uganda is investing heavily in promoting access to education for all its children. Over the past decade, the education budget has increased significantly yet both the learning outcomes for children and primary school retention rates, particularly for marginalized girls, are discouraging.
