Our Purpose

Our purpose is to ensure we provide an enabling environment that sees the living beings save from any form of negative artificial or social effects with special reference to children. As young people we believe the next generation needs to have a safe environment, with clean water, food and a healthy environment that makes them access quality education, with maximum social protection that ensures they are free from all forms of violence to be able to maximize their fullest potentials as the next generation depends greatly on how great the children are cared for.  Over the years, Government of Sierra Leone and other developmental partners have engaged in massive advocacy to ensure children are being protected with lot of policies, seminars and other programs but there are yet enormous challenges been faced by children and tends to deprive them of the chance to be successful deviod the challenges of life. As young people, we believe engaging the children, and stakeholders via a community led approach through a structured content developed will provide the community with adequate informations in order to create a wellbeing space for children and all. We seek to not only prioritize child right violation as key message but also promote other aspects through positive messaging that will ensure the right of children are respected asper the united nations convention on the right of the child and the Sierra Leone Child right act of 2007. We remain open to learn and give.
