Violence Against Children: The Voices of Ugandan Children and Adults

This publication discusses a research study in 2004 undertaken in five districts in Uganda. Over 1400 children discuss the various types of violence they experience at home, schools and in the community as well as how it makes children feel and their ideas for violence-free childhoods. The study also reports on discussions with almost 1100 adults about how they perceive punishment and discipline, mistreatment and how they too feel about the issues. The report ends with summary recommendations for protecting and promoting children’s rights to live free of violence.

Creating Safer Schools: Lessons Learned; Strategies for Action

Raising Voices, in collaboration with The Ford Foundation, hosted a forum in Nairobi, Kenya, for discussing the status quo in schools and developing workable responses. The forum brought together 15 experienced professionals over a period of two days to share their perspectives and develop practical strategies for action.

 

This report is the result of this forum, where the aim was to collectively reflect on what makes our schools unsafe, what responses we have come up with, and what we should be doing about it.
