Child Advocacy

2025 Theme: Children’s meaningful participation

This years theme focuses on the importance of participation, and ensuring street-connected children have the support and opportunities to engage in decisions which affect their lives.

Every year on the 12th of April, we partner with the CSC to help raise awareness of the rights of street connected children in the local community.

In 2026, we aim to join the community demonstrations to help raise awareness of the plight of street children in Uganda.

We align ourselves with the Consortium for Street Children (CSC) to celebrate and promote the International Day for Street Children (IDSC). Marked on the 12th April every year, IDSC celebrates the lives of vulnerable children and recognises the projects they are part of.  This day of advocacy and solidarity is a chance for the millions of street children around the world, and their champions, to speak out so that their voices are heard and their rights cannot be ignored.
