Building for the children of South Sudan 

A much-needed Child Protection Office will soon occupy this space.

SOUNDBITE (English) Major General Chaplain Khamis Edward, Head of Child Protection, at SSPDF,
“This office is specifically for the protection of children. (CUT) We want to put an end to the  use and recruitment of children. We want to put an end to occupation of schools, abduction of children, sexual violence against children.

Soundbite (English) Alfred Orono-Orono, Head of Child Protection, UNMISS
“Each stone here emphasizes the kind of unity that we [have] with the SSPDF. Each nail that goes here is a nail into the coffin of the death of issues of violations [against] children of South Sudan.” 

Supported by UNMISS, work  within these walls will help the army to better protect  children.
