It has been developed with support from Save the Children East &amp; Southern African Regional Programming Unit (RPU) and has been made to be interactive to ensure children engage with it. The revised version of the platform has incorporated inputs from children from across Africa. These were obtained through virtual trainings conducted in 2020 and included inputs from the ACERWC and the Gra\u00e7a Machel Trust partners.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Child Rights programme continues efforts to building awareness among African Children while increasing their knowledge of existing Child Rights Complaints Mechanisms, through the child-friendly digital platform. The platform has since been received as a positive development by different stakeholders as a tool that will help children navigate and engage with content about their rights. As a way to increase the number of children who gain more access to the training, the programme is in the process of getting an interactive print version training manual. This will further be translated into different languages, French and Arabic to accommodate children who do not have access to electronic devices. The HAKI 4 ALL Children is set to be launched during this years\u2019 Day of African Child commemorations in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GMT Child Rights Programme recently marked a phenomenal milestone after  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4483,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_rtcl_gb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[119,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-childrens-ryt-highlight","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4312\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.gbstudio.co.za\/gmt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
