Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>As Malawi joins the global community in commemorating International Children\u2019s Day, a heartfelt plea has been extended to the government to increase its allocation of resources to programs dedicated to safeguarding the rights of children across the nation.<\/p>\n

Child rights activists, including Amos Chibwana, has emphasized the pressing need for a substantial commitment of resources to address myriad issues affecting children in society. Chibwana stresses that a more significant allocation of resources is crucial in preventing and combating multiple abuses faced by children.<\/p>\n

On this significant day, marked globally as a commitment to the well-being of children, Chibwana underscores the importance of addressing challenges such as child trafficking, defilement, child labor, and early marriages.<\/p>\n

He contends that with enhanced resources, the government can overcome these obstacles, ensuring a safer and more secure environment for the nation\u2019s youth.<\/p>\n

Chibwana extends his plea beyond the government, urging the general public to actively contribute to safeguarding the welfare of children, emphasizing their role as future leaders.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a lot to be done to safeguard the children who are future leaders,\u201d emphasizes Chibwana. The 2023 theme for World Children\u2019s Day, \u2018For Every Child, Every Right!\u2019, resonates as a powerful call to action.<\/p>\n
