IDEP Report 2020

As with each year, ‘Together we can end child poverty’ campaign not only provides us an opportunity to join the world in marking IDEP but also grants us space to intensify our work in creating awareness, building advocacy and rallying partners to take action against child poverty. In 2020, the campaign was anchored on the global theme; ‘Acting together to achieve social and environmental justice for all’

Together we can end child poverty campaign was designed with this theme in mind with a bias on children. Our approach was based on the premise that social and environmental justice is key to ending child poverty as it addresses the underlying structural root causes of poverty including: corruption, gender inequalities, climate change, racial discrimination and racism, restrictions of Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) and violence against children.
