8. Achievements/succeses (cont’d) Improved relationships between community leaders, committees at T/A and GVH level on child protection project Increased reports on child rights violations from the communities Reached 2914 people from the communities with child protection, rights messages in T/A Mponela Reached 768 children with messages of child rights, protection and care Established 30 Community Child Protection Committees (300 members) in T/A Mponela communities Established 4 Zone Child Protection Committees at cluster level in Mponela Zone.

Elections of office bearers were done on transparent manner for the communities elected people of their choice after being guided on who to be in the committees (Participatory in nature) Increased understanding on issues about child rights, roles and responsibilities in schools of Mponela Zone Conduct 16 meetings at GVH level to find out forms of violence happening at community level

10. Immediate Impact Community Child Protection Committees started reporting cases of child abuse happening in their communities 1. Chimwaza Market committees beat children who are present during school sessions 2. Police fails to prevail justice on reported cases of abuse for example on child was abused by a hot steel wire on the waist by her aunt 3. One family is locking a disabled child in a house because he is dum 4. One man marries a 15 year old girl who is related to the first wife who he dumped after giving her a child 5. Kudyerea masuku ana. Children work for parents to sell firewood and mandasi but parents take the wages from the employers

11. Challenges No safe home for children in Dowa district. OSSEDI Malawi has a place at Tchale village in T/A Mponela that waits for donors to fund for construction. The communities will this year start moulding bricks for the site but OSSEDI Malawi is looking for donors to assist on funding it for construction. Price hike because of devaluation of kwacha that made prices of fuel, stationery, etc. high on the market than the budgeted price Inadequate funds to support many activities in order to reach many beneficiaries of the project High expectations from the communities from OSSEDI and Plan Malawi in dealing with child abuse and labelled as NGOs with high integrity High demand from the communities on IEC materials i.e. Constitution books, justice act 2010, posters, T-Shirts, leaflets, caps

12. Challenges (cont’d) Elected Community Child Protection Committees complained of mobility for reporting issues about child abuse and the perpetrators to relevant authorities Fear of some communities that the project will bring enmity among community people around the communities and villages at GVH level High demand of trainings to the elected leaders as they pose a challenge of no skills in dealing with issues about child abuse No sanitation and hygiene in many schools for many schools have few toilets for children and children with disabilities have problems to use them

13. Challenges (Cont’d) Inadequate activities on Youth empowerment Livelihoods such as poverty is a contributing factor to children in indulging immoral behaviors, child labour, forced marriages High complaints from communities on delay of funds disbursements to the project as the project inceptions was so great and had high expectations to sort out issues of child abuse and rights in the communities Weak governance systems that contribute to no reporting of issues of child abuse issues by the leaders and communities

14. Recommendations Construction of safe home for children in T/A Mponela as OSSEDI Malawi imitated the project in the community Introduction of Youth Empowerment, Water and Sanitation project in the area Timely disbursement of funds to the project because as per records of Dowa Social Welfare Office, Mponela is the highest area with issues of child abuses Introduction of livelihoods programmes to the extremely poor households as a solutions to the many challenges faced by households i.e. poverty, child labour

15. Way Forward To train CCPC on Child protection and Justice act 2010 To distribute IEC materials to committees To train community leaders on child protection and justice act To train children on children rights and justice act 2010 To conduct an awareness meeting on disability, child rights and child protection To extend the project and facilitate formation of Rights of the child clubs in the remaining schools To conduct meetings on child protection at (GVH) community level

Totals for First and Second 10, 771 People 16. Conclusion Appreciation to Plan Malawi for the funds, stakeholders such as Police, Dowa Child Protection Committee, Social Welfare Office and CSO’s for the help rendered to us during implementation Total number of people reached with Child protection messages First Quarter – 1957 Males and 1924 Females = 3881 Second Quarter -3173 Males and 3717 Females = 6890 Total Males 5130 and 5041 Totals for First and Second 10, 771 People
