Success story

I dropped out of school in grade 5

Evasse Robate, 15 years old, Angonia District

How can we support families to keep children in school?

Evasse had dropped out of school. He was working to help his family. ECLT supported Community Child Protection Committee members were able to connect Evasse to support and help his uncle send him back to school.

Simple things like uniforms, school materials and basic hygiene articles, can help get children back in school and encourage them to stay.
