The Belle of Words- Janet Nkiwane!- Special blog.

THE PHOENIX As the first rays of dawn lick the dusty streets of Makokoba township Noise already fills the atmosphere Stench from the blocked sewers fills the air As i stand on the veranda of my match box home, Clad in a thread bare attire, with an empty stomach I look over the horizon The rising sun rejuvenates my inner being In the midst of poverty I still stand my head held up high Though my inner being has withered My zeal to live has departed I still stand I stand against the obstacles in my path All of these my determined self shall bravely brush away Like a phoenix I will rise from the ashes Fly away so high Dance in the air like a bird For I have chosen freedom In the midst of poverty Education is my priority Education shall wash away my poverty It shall be a shield that once attained, will forever Shield my hide from the scorching rays of the sun From the storms and hunger That awaits to devour my inner being I s

Clean water and Sanitation- What about women and girls in war zones?

For more than three decades Africa has been in serious war challenges due to various political , social and economic reasons. Many people have died in the whole war and cheap military drama . Have we ever thought as a continent about the plight of women and girls in war zones? Women due to the nature of their creation require a maximum of two times bath a day . I don’t imagine a war situation giving such a chance to our women running away with their lives from war zones. They will be no time and even that dirty water to bath what more of toilets and sanitary pads in war bases and bushes. This article is written by Mbizo Chirasha Picture by nairaland. It had been a tough time for Chibok girls in Nigeria , those kidnapped by the BokO haram, Sudan and DRC are other examples of such challenges . Women are human species that require maximum hygiene and care. In Sudan they travel miles and miles through stretching deserts to Algeria

16 Days of Activism 2016 with Tanaka Bandera!

Editorial note- While we are in the month of November, the month that is believed as the sacred month by many of the African Descent. We also advocate for the stop and end in Gender Based Violence mostly known as GBV in Zimbabwe. GirlChildCreativity publishes a poem by Tanaka Bandera titled MY TIME IS UP Tanaka is a Theatre and Arts Student at the Midlands State University. The poem is pregnant with emotion as young poet stands her ground in unmasking the chauvinistic behaviour of the other gender. The poet declares militantly in some of her verses that enough is enough. We continue to give young girls space and voice as we also continue to organize literary events that continue to put the aspirations of girls and young women in the forefront. We also take this opportunity to thank the GBV Africa Network for assisting us with the kit for advocacy and information during the 16 days of Activism which starts every 25 th of November to 10 December every year.
