Our team in Kenya have started ministering to vulnerable children living in the vast slums there, including Kibera.

In Zambia, when a mother is sentenced to prison and she has a child aged 4 or under, the child will often go with her. As conditions in Zambian prisons are notoriously bad, Kids Alive Zambia has launched a new programme to provide practical, spiritual and emotional support for both mother and child. Crucially, we are also working with the prison authorities to advocate for systems reform so that children are better cared for when behind bars.

Care & Justice Pilot Project

Zambia
Basic medical care, Pursuance of justice, Trauma informed care, Family Support

Sadly child sexual abuse is endemic in Zambia with many men believing that they will be cured of HIV if they have sex with a child. With an average age of only 12, there is negligible support and care for the victims and painfully inadequate systems to pursue justice or to establish effective child protection laws and systems. Our pilot scheme is designed to address all of these, providing care for the victims, justice for them, and work with the authorities for reform.
