The African Movement for Working Children and Youth (AMWCY) arranged comics
workshops in 2010 in Benin,
Côte d’Ivoire,
Guinea Bissau, Mali, Nigeria,
Senegal and Rwanda.
Well over a hundred children and youths participated in the workshops.
The
topics of the comics were drawn from the activities of the AMWCY members and
the actions they engage in to realize their rights; birth certificates for
children, ill treatment and violence, exploitation of working children, female
genital mutilation and its consequences.
More about the workshops in AMWCY’s
newsletter www.maejt.org
AMWCY got their first introduction to grassroots comics in 2005 in a
workshop in Cotonou, Benin.
