Our girls back to school campaign is ongoing. Day 10
Girls spend 160 million more hours than boys doing household chores everyday. As a result, girls sacrifice important opportunities to learn, grow, and just enjoy their childhood.
Our today's guest is Angelina, she will share with us her academic experience during school lockdown.
How has the coronavirus affected your academic life?
Covid-19 affected my academic life by stopping my studies, I miss my teachers and colleagues very much, I miss school so much. I ask Angola to return to normal, please.
Now that the schools have reopened, have you gone back to school?
Well, I didn't go back to school because of the coronavirus. In addition, when school reopened, the school board made the decision to assist only students from grade 8 and up. And I study in the 7th grade.
Have you done anything to continue learning at home?
No, I have not been studying at home because I have been very busy with housework.
Have you been following the coronavirus prevention measures?
Yes I do. I Always wash hands with soap and water, disinfect them with gel alcohol, make the use of facial masks and prevent myself at home.
Aren't you afraid of the coronavirus?
I'm so scared.
Thank you! bye, kisses.
This campaign focuses on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women and girls ’education and the long-lasting consequences it will have on gender equality and women’s human rights. We noticed that girls ’work is less visible and often undervalued. Too often adult responsibilities such as caring for family members, including other children, are imposed on girls. Time spent on chores limits a girl’s time to socialize with friends, study and be a child. In some communities, collecting firewood and water puts girls at risk of sexual violence.
We launched this campaign to ensure that every girl is able to learn while schools are closed and return to the classroom when schools safely reopen. Everyone can play a role in supporting girls ’education - whether you’re a teacher, parent, student, journalist, policymaker, or simply a concerned citizen.
Don't miss this opportunity to bring girls back to school. Tell us your story!
