Promoting Child Rights and Participation

SOET educates children and caregivers about child rights, empowering young people to participate in decisions that affect their lives. Child-friendly forums and clubs create safe spaces for children to express themselves, build leadership skills, and develop confidence.

Preventing and Responding to Abuse

Through awareness campaigns and community training, SOET equips parents, teachers, and community leaders to identify, prevent, and respond to cases of child abuse and neglect. Reporting mechanisms and referral systems are established to ensure timely intervention and support.

Supporting Education and Health

Education and health are foundational to child development. SOET provides school fees, uniforms, and learning materials to ensure that vulnerable children remain in school. Additionally, regular health check-ups and nutrition support are provided to promote holistic well-being. Discover our education support and health support programs.
