Le Bilan fait lors de la célébration de la troisième édition de la journée internationale contre le travail des enfants révèle en effet que le fléau résiste aux actions menées pour le combattre. Aussi bien au Bénin que dans le monde tout entier, l’enfant continue d’être soumis aux travaux des adultes hypothéquant ainsi son avenir, celui de son pays et de toute l’espèce humaine.

Local people interested in learning computers are turning up at the new community multimedia centre in a neighbourhood in Benin. The UNESCO-supported telecentre does not have its own community radio station yet but has linked up with a nearby FM station for an hour’s broadcasting every day.

Vaikka Benin on poliittisesti melko vakaa maa, köyhyys nakertaa hyvinvointia. Lasten lähettäminen sukulaisten luo kaupunkiin kotiapulaiseksi on pitkään ollut tavallinen ja kunniallinen tapa. Viime vuosina järjestely on kuitenkin muuttunut irvikuvakseen ja lasten myyminen orjatyövoimaksi on paisunut ase- ja huumekauppaan verrattavaksi bisnekseksi.

Keväällä 2004 päättynyt koulujen kaksivuotinen Nepal-kampanja tuotti 1,2 miljoonaa euroa tyttöjen koulutukseen. Unicef-kävelyyn osallistui vuosittain 80 000 oppilasta 400 koulusta ympäri maata. Nyt alkavissa Unicef-kävelyissä kerätään varoja pieneen ranskankieliseen Beniniin. Kahden seuraavan vuoden aikana Suomen koululaiset antavat tuntuvan panoksensa Beninin lapsikaupan ja lapsityön vastaisiin ohjelmiin.

Rosine Mahinou, a mother of seven never thought she would send her girls to school. But that was five years ago. Today, Ms. Mahinou has enrolled all of her girls in school along with her boys. This sea change in her attitude is largely due to a programme promoting girls’ education called Education and Community, in her village in Benin.

Von der Kreisstadt Tanguieta im Norden Benins aus führt die fast schnurgerade Piste in Richtung Nationalpark. Jetzt, zum Ende der Regenzeit ist alles fantastisch grün und die Felder der Bauern sind gut zu erkennen. Links dehnt sich das sanft zum Pendjari-Fluss hin abfallende Schutzgebiet aus, während sich rechterhand die Atakora-Bergkette wie der Rücken eines urzeitlichen Fossils erstreckt.

Beninin demokratia on kehittynyt positiivisesti, mutta se kaipaa silti vahvistamista, sanoo YK:n kehitysohjelman UNDP:n apulaisasiantuntijana Cotonoussa työskentelevä Aleksi Hokkanen. Hokkanen on mukana ohjelmassa, jonka tavoitteena on demokraattisen hallinnon vahvistaminen. Käytännössä tämä merkitsee erityisesti parlamentin aseman tukemista.

Ongelmista huolimatta Beniniä on pidetty eräänlaisena afrikkalaisen demokratian mallimaana, sillä vaalit on järjestetty ajallaan ja tilanne on säilynyt rauhallisena, toisin kuin monissa muissa alueen maissa.
