Forso many of us. it isclearthat this lastyearh&5 had the most acut¢ impad on thechildren in oursociety. MginalIsed in number5 th* is perhaps unrnatched in living memory. children have been threatened with l(K)sing access io education, farnily, friends and other social and support structures. even food and shelter. The essence of what defm¢5 chilthocrtt and the means of growth and development ihar every child. everywhere, d¢serv¢5 &$ an inalienable right.
