Aradiah, 16, feels lucky to be in her last year of primary school. In #CAR , only 24% of girls make it this far and even fewer make it to secondary school. With @UNCERF 's support, UNICEF help keep girls in school and reintegrate those who have had to drop out.

Galmo used to walk three hours a day to collect water for her children. 💧 See how a programme funded by @BMZ_Bund through @KfW_int is making clean water and nutrition support more accessible for Galmo and her community.
