26 March – Gender
In today’s show we were joined Instudio by Stacey, Samantha, Lucia and Elise from the Children’s Resource centre’s Circle of sisterhood. Today children, especially y
oung girls are faced with many challenges. Many girls are being left to bear the responsibility of having to head up a household, having to drop out of school in order to take care of their household. The children’s resource centre, a girl movement aims to build an organisation through which children can help build a better world for children. In the movement the “circle of Sisterhood” is a group of girls who address issues facing young girls of our society today.
