Judge blocks flights sending hundreds of children back to Guatemala “I have the government attempting to remove minor children from the country in the wee hours of the morning on a holiday weekend," the judge said.

The government’s “ actions are thus exposing children to multiple harms in returning them to a country where they fear persecution and by flouting their legal obligations to care for them in the United States.”

Project Never Walk Alone reports positive impact Hertta-Maria Amutenja  Project Never Walk Alone (PNWA) says it is satisfied with the impact of its efforts to provide footwear to vulnerable children across Namibia, citing improved school attendance, academic performance, and confidence levels among beneficiaries. The project, launched by Tim Ekandjo in August 2021, aims to restore the dignity of barefooted Namibian children by providing them with access to new pairs of shoes. Since its inception, the initiative has distributed over 12,200 pairs of shoes across eight regions, having travelled more than 9,500 kilometres nationwide. According to the project, a recently concluded impact survey conducted in eight regions has revealed three key outcomes.  Firstly, learners now attend school more regularly, with the lack of shoes no longer serving as a barrier.  Secondly, the children’s self-confidence has increased, improving their classroom participation and social interaction.  Thirdly, teachers have noted enhanced academic performance, with both educators and parents observing a renewed sense of equality among learners. In 2023, PNWA spent N$ 890,000 in the Zambezi region, distributing over 1,700 pairs of shoes and socks and introducing for the first time about 70 branded tracksuits. A handover ceremony was held at Katima Mulilo Combined School and Caprivi Senior Secondary School.  Children also received lunch during the event.  The handover was made possible through contributions from Arrechanab Community Trust and Unity Trust (N$650,000 collectively), the Momentum Metropolitan Empowerment Trust (N$ 140,000), and Breakwater Marine Industries (N$100,000). The project indicated that its next focus is the //Kharas and Oshana regions, where it plans to distribute 2,500 pairs of shoes per region.  To this end, PNWA has launched a fundraising campaign seeking N$1.9 million.  Two corporate entities, RFA and SPKA Group, have each pledged N$100,000. PNWA said it maintains transparency and accountability by announcing all sponsor names and amounts on its website and social media platforms. Sponsors are invited to handover events and receive detailed reports on how their contributions were spent.  An auditing and accounting firm has also been secured to prepare annual financial statements on a pro bono basis. The initiative sources 80% of its shoe materials locally and partners with Shilongo Leather Works for manufacturing, supporting the Namibian economy. According to PNWA’s database, over 70,000 children in rural Namibia are still in need of shoes. The project says it remains committed to reaching all of them.

New forum established to protect children in //Kharas region //KHARAS governor Aletha Frederick has urged stakeholders in her region to stand together to protect vulnerable children. Frederick made the call on Friday, during the inaugural stakeholder meeting for the establishment of the regional childcare and protection forum at Keetmanshoop. The forum is spearheaded by the Gender Equality and Social Welfare Division in the //Kharas Regional Council. The governor said the establishment of the forum is not merely a formality but is a vital step toward creating an inclusive platform where stakeholders can collaborate effectively to address the challenges faced by children in the region. “As the chairperson of this forum, I am deeply committed to ensuring that every child in our region receives the protection, care and support they deserve,” Frederick said. The forum will serve as an educational platform for stakeholders to share knowledge on child protection laws, available services and best practices that have proven effective in other regions. Frederick encouraged participants to participate actively in the discussions to establish a robust framework for children’s rights. “Your insights are invaluable as we work together to establish a robust regional childcare and protection forum that will champion the rights of children throughout our region. Let us embark on this journey together and with determination and hope for a brighter future for all children in our care,” she stressed. The governor said the establishment of the forum is guided by the Child Care and Protection Act, a framework that ensures all children are afforded protection, care and management regardless of their circumstances. “The act emphasises our collective responsibility to create an environment where every child can thrive free from harm,” said Frederi ck. The post New forum established to protect children in //Kharas region appeared first on The Namibian.
