Goal: Eradicate the harmful practice of child marriage through raising awareness, changing behaviour and empowering communities with the knowledge and tools needed to resist child marriage. Promote the effective implementation of strong laws and policies with a bearing on children especially the girl child and promote the fulfillment of their human rights. Develop and implement human developmental activities such as capacity building and entrepreneurial programs that would mitigate the effects.

Program Goal:

The program will delay marriage for at least 3000 girls, help Government develop supportive policies and allocate resources to increase health, education and economic opportunities for married girls and girls at risk of early marriage. Girls are increasingly aware of their rights, increased knowledge on the dangers of child marriage, young people empowered from the capacity building and entrepreneurship offered hence reducing poverty.

The Body Ministry program’s concentration on income generating skills will eventually provide:

• Health insurance and savings & credit programs
• Women’s business cooperatives & skills training
• Water, hygiene and sanitation initiatives
• Prevention of gender based violence and child abuse
• Engaging children in play, reading, social games, and sports.

A child sponsorship program allows children to benefit from education, and a disability program has broken down bias & barriers to children & families living with disabilities
