O tema deste ano foi \u201cGarantir o Acesso Universal \u00e0 \u00c1gua, Saneamento e Higiene (WASH) para Todas as Crian\u00e7as em \u00c1frica\u201d. De forma especial, este ano <strong>assinala os 50 anos da Revolta de Soweto de 16 de junho de 1976, quando estudantes se levantaram corajosamente contra a injusti\u00e7a, e os 35 anos desde que a Uni\u00e3o Africana dedicou este dia \u00e0 celebra\u00e7\u00e3o da Crian\u00e7a Africana e \u00e0 promo\u00e7\u00e3o e prote\u00e7\u00e3o dos direitos e do bem-estar das crian\u00e7as em todo o continente<\/strong>. Embora tenham sido alcan\u00e7ados progressos significativos, milh\u00f5es de crian\u00e7as africanas continuam a enfrentar barreiras no acesso aos servi\u00e7os essenciais, lembrando-nos de que os seus direitos e a sua dignidade devem permanecer uma prioridade partilhada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Em toda a \u00c1frica, os Centros de Campo da AJAN continuam a apoiar crian\u00e7as e jovens atrav\u00e9s de iniciativas que promovem a sa\u00fade, a educa\u00e7\u00e3o integral por meio do <strong>AJAN HIV and AIDS Prevention Program for the Youth (AHAPPY)<\/strong>, a <strong>gest\u00e3o ambiental, o empreendedorismo, o apoio psicossocial e os meios de subsist\u00eancia sustent\u00e1veis<\/strong> atrav\u00e9s dos <strong>programas Building Resilience among Women and Girls in Africa (BRWGA) e Jesuit Youth Social Entrepreneurship Action (JYSEA)<\/strong>.

O acesso a \u00e1gua pot\u00e1vel, saneamento seguro e condi\u00e7\u00f5es adequadas de higiene constitui a base essencial para que crian\u00e7as e jovens se mantenham saud\u00e1veis, frequentem a escola, desenvolvam os seus talentos e aproveitem as oportunidades com dignidade e confian\u00e7a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Nesta edi\u00e7\u00e3o, leia a <strong><em>Declara\u00e7\u00e3o da AJAN por ocasi\u00e3o do Dia da Crian\u00e7a Africana<\/em><\/strong>, que reflete sobre a import\u00e2ncia de garantir o acesso universal \u00e0 \u00e1gua, ao saneamento e \u00e0 higiene (WASH) para todas as crian\u00e7as em \u00c1frica. <strong><em>Destacamos tamb\u00e9m o Service Yezu Mwiza (SYM), no Burundi, onde, a 2 de junho de 2026, uma delega\u00e7\u00e3o da Embaixada de Fran\u00e7a, liderada pelo Sr. Vincent Curis, visitou projetos que apoiam a recupera\u00e7\u00e3o sustent\u00e1vel das atividades geradoras de rendimento de 73 grupos de mulheres<\/em><\/strong> <strong><em>em Buhonga, na Prov\u00edncia de Bujumbura<\/em><\/strong>.
