Youth in Action: Rebuilding Bridges and Protecting Education in Emergencies

Hello, my name is Fadhili Mwalingo, I am a Youth Advocate for the KUYENDA Collective from Mbeya, Tanzania. I’m happy to share my story with You! Last year I managed to mobilize my fellow youth and together with the authorities we were able to rebuild the bridge that has been destroyed by heavy rain and strong wind. Now students from Ndola village cross it to reach Nsalala Secondary School safely. Yes, it took a while, but the result was rewarding! During this Global Action Week for Education, I would like to encourage Youth to take their part in promoting access to Education, “Education Saves Lives: Protect Education in Emergencies”
