Calls for Enhanced Child Protection Measures Directed at Policymakers

In the wake of recent protests condemning violence against children, policymakers are being urged to take more decisive action in safeguarding the nation’s innocent. Various stakeholders representing different sectors of society have expressed their concern regarding delayed policies and what appears to be a lack of urgency in addressing the alarming incidents that have taken the lives of numerous children over the years, with the most recent tragic case being that of eight year old Danielle Rowe.

The collective voice of these stakeholders highlights the pressing need for enhanced child protection measures and a proactive approach from policymakers. The protests serve as a poignant reminder that the well-being and safety of our children should be of utmost priority. The current state of affairs underscores the urgency to address this issue with the seriousness and attention it deserves.

Stakeholders are urging policymakers to demonstrate a stronger commitment to protecting children by expediting the implementation of comprehensive policies that address violence against them. They emphasize the importance of providing adequate support systems, raising awareness, and fostering a culture that rejects violence and prioritizes the welfare of children. Watch the report:
