A non-governmental and non-profit organisation, A Mother’s Love Initiative has assumed an important role in the African environment to preserve, protect, enhance, and sustain the well-being and the future of every African child, especially the girl-child. This is in recognition of the United Nations Girl-Child day being celebrated every October 11.
AMLi, a strong advocate in promoting values, girl-child protection ceases this day to draw the attention of parents through its programme under The Hurried Child project in Africa which focuses on changing the view of the girl-child and society towards practices and behaviours that promote the commodification of the girl- child.
Continuing, Enwemadu said, “AMLi is of the position that a girl-child should be protected, guided to treat herself with dignity, respect and must equally be treated with dignity by the society. This we hope to achieve through reeducation and the re-engineering of our value systems”.
