Atemo’s story: A new short film celebrating International Day of the Girl Child

Friday 10th October 2014

20 million children in sub-Saharan Africa do not continue their education past primary school. This is true for 75% of girls in Uganda.

ARK is supporting our partner PEAS (Promoting Equality in African Schools) to run 24 secondary schools in rural Uganda.

In this short film commemorating the International Day of the Girl Child, we meet Atemo, one of our students from a small village who dreams of being an engineer.
