The Day of the African Child - June 16 : Osama Khogali Makkawi / UNICEF Ghana
As of 2023, Africa is home to an estimated 627 million children under the age of 18. By 2050-2055, this number is projected to rise to nearly 1 billion, which means that 40 percent of the world’s children will be in Africa. That translates to 4 out of every 10 children in the world will be African.
In Ghana, children make up approximately 45 percent of the population, highlighting the vital relevance of the day's objectives and the work towards its goals to secure Ghana's future.
