Child Development
Our Approach to Child Development
Every child should be able to realise their full potential and grow up to build a better world. Whether in demanding better education, nutrition or any other necessities of basic living, the African child should never have to feel threatened in wanting a better life.
At Dream Africa, we are all about standing up for children and young people’s rights, making sure their voices are heard and that they get the help and support they need.
Dream Africa’s Approach to Child Development;
Accessibility to Quality Education
Dream Africa believes in the power of education to help end poverty. We work to give children the education they need and fight the inequalities that stand in their way. We invest in the lives of children, build the healthy environments they need to thrive, and empower them to create lasting change in their own lives and communities. Dream Africa provides basic educational infrastructure and supplies; such as children’s clothes and shoes, books and other personal or educational supplies to help families, children and schools throughout rural areas that are unable to afford them.
Protecting the Rights of Children
Dream Africa works with vulnerable children to advance their rights as well as pushing for gender equality. Through our advocacy and community development projects, Dream Africa aims to break down the taboos around menstruation, stop period poverty, and push for an end to child marriage, teenage pregnancy, gender-based violence, and female genital mutilation. We work to uphold the right of all children to health, safety and education.
