Hussain carries his younger
brother in his village near
the Somalia border.
Communities in
southeastern Ethiopia are
beginning to feel the effects
of the failed rainy reasons
and have become
increasingly food insecure
over the last four months.
While international focus
remains on refugees
coming from Somalia, the
needs in Ethiopia are
rapidly increasing.
Every hour of every day, 300 children die because of
malnutrition. The good news? This crisis is solvable.
EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON WHICH YOU CAN USE TO
CHANGE THE WORLD.
In late 2011, the world’s population reached 7 billion. Every newborn child has the
right to a standard of living adequate for her or his physical, mental, spiritual, moral
and social development. Ensuring that the youngest among us achieve that right is the
surest path to a truly sustainable world.
A school wall is decorated with children’s handprints in the
town of Bazzama.
Audrey Hepburn feeds a high-protein food to a malnourished a child in
Baidoa. “For many it’s too late, but for many, many more we can still be
on time,” said Ms. Hepburn, after witnessing the impact of famine on
Somalia’s children in 1992.
Are they a good enough reason to create a better world?
Children’s rights are not
just words in an
international treaty. They
are the substance of what
children’s lives should
consist of: a loving
family, access to
education and health
care, opportunities to
express themselves, and
protection from abuse
and discrimination. The
realization, or denial, of
children’s rights is woven
into the fabric of their
daily lives.
