The event served as a platform to educate, inspire, and empower children to become advocates for healthy hygiene practices, environmental cleanliness, and the protection of children's rights.โฃโฃ

One of the most remarkable features of this year's celebration was that 98% of the program activities were led and executed by children themselves. From the opening prayer and welcome remarks to introductions, dramatic performances, statements, and presentations, the children demonstrated confidence, leadership, creativity, and a strong sense of responsibility. Their active participation reflected the true spirit of the Day of the African Childโamplifying the voices of children and recognizing their role as leaders of today and tomorrow.โฃโฃ

In her inspiring message, she highlighted the history and significance of the Day of the African Child and reminded students that access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene is a fundamental right, not a privilege. She challenged the children to become ambassadors of positive hygiene practices in their schools and communities and emphasized the connection between clean water, good health, and quality education. โฃโฃ

Mrs. Dukuly also acknowledged the challenges many Liberian children still face in accessing safe water and sanitation facilities while celebrating the progress Liberia has made through community initiatives, government efforts, and development partnerships. She encouraged students to dream big, stay committed to their education, and use their talents to create positive change. Concluding her address, she reminded the children that they are not only the leaders of tomorrow but also important change-makers today.โฃโฃ
