| Clubs help girls stay in school and succeed in Burkina FasoFri, 14 Mar 2008 07:27:17 -0700 by karmavisiontvhttp://karmavision.t v/video/572/unicef__ clubs_help_girls_sta y_in_school_and_succ eed_in_burkina_faso. htmlWe find ourselves in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, where Ms. Rouamba, a widowed mother of five children lives. Prisca attends a state secondary school. Her classmate Ramata is an orphan who lives with her uncle and twelve other children, including two cousins also orphaned. Sending everybody to school has been a real challenge for her uncle. To help these girls stay and succeed at school FAWE, the Forum for African Women educationalists, a UNICEF-funded NGO that is also supported by USAID, organizes clubs of the same name in each secondary school of Ouagadougou. The FAWE clubs also help its members in other areas; here, young girls are counseled, given financial support, and taught income generating activities such as soap making, which is undertaken every Saturday. For these girls, to remain in school and have the chance to complete their education is becoming their greatest joy. Related: burkina faso unicef girls school ouagadougou children education |
