IDECO collaborates with Aduman D/A Primary school to Empower Children to Advocate for Gender Equality
On the International Day of the Child 2024, IDECO, in collaboration with Aduman D/A Primary School in Kumasi, proudly championed the theme "Equality for Every Child" by creating awareness among young minds about the importance of gender equality. The event was not just a celebration but a platform to educate children about the critical role equality plays in shaping a better future for themselves and their communities.
At the heart of this initiative was the belief that every child regardless of gender deserves equal access to opportunities to learn, dream, and thrive. By addressing common gender stereotypes and encouraging mutual respect, the event sought to instill the values of fairness and inclusion at an early age. Children were taught the importance of supporting one another, embracing each other’s strengths, and standing up against unfair treatment to build a more inclusive and equitable society.
The day’s activities brought the message of gender equality to life through vibrant and engaging performances. The children used dance, poetry, and drama to creatively illustrate the importance of treating everyone with respect and dignity. These artistic expressions not only educated the children but also raised a sense of pride and ownership of the principles of equality.
To further deepen the impact, IDECO provided practical tools for learning and advocacy. Books, T-shirts, and other souvenirs bearing powerful captions on gender equality were distributed among the pupils. These materials not only reinforced the lessons of the day but also served as ongoing reminders of their responsibility to uphold equality in their everyday lives.
The impact of this initiative extended beyond the school. By equipping children with the knowledge and understanding of gender equality, the program empowered them to become advocates within their families and communities. When children learn about equality at an early age, they grow into adults who value fairness, reject discrimination, and contribute to a more just society.
IDECO is calling on donors, partners, and stakeholders to support this mission. Together, we can ensure that initiatives like this continue to inspire and educate, laying the foundation for a brighter and more equitable future for all children. Let’s work together to create a world where every child, regardless of gender, can dream, achieve, and thrive.
