Ending the detention of children is on the agenda for IDC members across Africa. IDC members in Uganda and Kenya are planning campaign activities to coincide with the International Day of Action to End Child Detention on November 20, 2014. To get involved, contact Susan ([email protected]) at the Refugee Law Project in Uganda, or Noela Barasa ([email protected]) at RMMS in Kenya for more information .
If you can’t be there on the day, you can certainly get involved with online support, just look out for facebook posts and twitter updates and share widely on the day.
Of note this month also, civil society in South Africa call for action following the support of the South Africa Human Rights Commission report detailing human rights abuses at the Lindela Repatriation Centre.
