Sinet's Blog: Real Lives Transformed Through Sponsorship

Despite the lingering threat of cholera across parts of South Sudan’s Upper Nile state, especially in Renk, Sudanese refugee mothers like Nasime are proving that knowledge can be as powerful as medicine.

This article highlights the launch, in Kasaï Central, of an awareness campaign initiated by World Vision and its partners to ensure the unconditional return of all children to school. Running throughout September 2025, the initiative focuses on mobilising parents, community leaders, and local authorities, particularly in the areas of Tshikula and Tshimbulu where dropout rates remain worrying. Implemented under the Tudisange bua Kalasa mu Kasaï Central project with support from the European Union, the campaign includes awareness sessions, community dialogues, and mobilisation activities designed to remove barriers to schooling, especially for girls, and to promote inclusive and equitable education.
