They are young, sometimes still children. They cook, garden, and mind children.<br />

Unworthy to many, often ‘invisible’, many young domestic workers in Africa<br />

are deprived of professional status... and education. Through the stories and<br />

aspirations of seven young domestic workers in Burundi, Rwanda and<br />

Democratic Republic of the Congo, this IDAY/ADPM documentary addresses<br />

the enforcement of the right to education of thousands of them in Africa.<br />

Beyond a human right, their training will also contribute to strengthening the<br />

tertiary sector and curb youth unemployment. The screening will be followed<br />

by a discussion with practitioner members of IDAY International & ADPM.<br />

Organised by IDAY<br />
