It was a very good opportunity for FSCE as organisation struggling against abuse and exploitation of children to have a delegation to stop child labour. We were made to share the initiative and much inspired to work against all forms of child labour. Our CBO partners are committed to make their area a child labour free zone. We are also invited by ministry of labour and social affairs to work in a task force that designs a national plan of action against child labour. my participation in the workshops both in Addis and Nairobi personally encouraged me to advocate for the cause of the campaign. My organisation(FSCE) and myself are very much greateful for those who involved us in the processes in general and SKN in particular. I highly look forward to contribute to the mission of the campaign and network for better achievements. With many thanks. Meseret Tadesse.

Dear Partners, organizers and delegates of Stop Child Labour Africa Tour 2008 in Ethiopia, Wabe Children’s Aid and Training (WCAT) would like express its gratitude for all the initiators, organizers, financers and visitors in the tour 665 km far from Addis Ababa and 100 km from the capital of the region(Bahir Dar). In the visit, the delegation realized the community awareness have been raised in the previous years and ready to send their children if more ABEs will be constructed and more facilitators will be hired. This is a great success for our organization however the need to address more out-of-children remains a challenge because of financial constraints. Wabe Children’s Aid and Training requests donor agencies to assist those needy children in Ethiopia in general and in our intervention areas in particular like Kinderpostzegels, Edukans Foundation and Pact Ethiopia do. Thank you everyone once again. ABEs are the best places to stop child labor!! Respectfully, Adane Melese Tegegne (WCAT Deputy Director)

dear all, I suppose you will get a lot of inspiration from the people you meet. I hope you met a lot of teachers too and discussed with them what education can contribute to the child labour situation. Nadia and Pavel, thanks for the reports and pictures!

A l'heure où le monde entier célèbre la journée de l'alimentation, nous savons que des millions d'enfants meurent de faim particulièrement les enfants déplacés et / ou séquestrés sur des chantiers de travaux inhumains. nous joignons notre pas et notre voix à la vôtre pour plaider en faveur de ces innocents en difficulté.

Dear friends of the Stop Child Labour Campaign Africa Tour Delegation, I herewith transmit you a message from FDC/BF, one of the partner organisations of Kinderpostzegels in Burkina Faso: 'Bonsoir Henk, Merci beaucoup pour l'information. C'est une très bonne initiative qui va inspirer toute l’équipe de projet. C'est dommage que ça ne vienne pas au Burkina ou au Mali ou Sénégal. Peut être les prochaines années. Je crois qu'on pourrait envisager quelque chose comme ça au niveau régional. Encore une fois grand merci et salutations à la délégation.

Keep up the good working! There's a lot going on in Ethiopia to secure primary education for all children. Look at www.a-cet.org and www.eyes.org to see the efforts of an organization that is doing such a great job in Tigrya (northern part of Ethiopia)
