World Food Programme (WFP) has supported the establishment of clubs that agitate against early marriage in Beledweyne schools.
The establishment of these school clubs by WFP is a significant step towards addressing critical social issues like early marriage.
It will enable WFP to work closely with teachers, parents, and other stakeholders to oppose gender bias in education and child labor too.
These clubs not only help raise awareness but also empower students and the wider community to engage in meaningful discussions and advocacy.
By educating young people about these challenges, the clubs aim to promote positive changes and create an environment where children, particularly girls, can access education and opportunities without facing social obstacles.
This program likely has the potential to foster greater equality and improve the long-term development prospects of the region.
