I am a member of Loco Child Rights Club, and I joined to learn and teach other children. My role is to teach my community about child rights. Being a part of the Child Rights Club means I learn a lot and my fellow children respect me.
What I would like to change in my community is the poor waste disposal. The Child Rights Club can help this community by sensitising them on good habits of disposing garbage.
What I look forward to every week is to go to school and what makes me happy is to draw good pictures.

WHAT IS A CHILD RIGHTS CLUB?
In Uganda, Children on the Edge support three Child Rights Clubs in Uganda - in Loco, Wandago and Masese 1. These clubs empower children to change their communities for the better.
Child Rights Clubs are given regular workshops on rights, responsibilities, how to work hand-in-hand with local Child Protection Teams and how to prevent instances of child labour, exploitation and abuse. They then take their training out to a wider audience of children in their communities. |
