Afrika Youth Movement Hub Togo

Together Against Coronavirus in Vulnerable People

Location: Togo (Lomé)

The Afrika Youth Movement Hub Togo visits prisons to inquire about the situation of political detainees. With the arrival of the coronavirus, the Minister of justice prohibited access to prisoners' visits which further isolates them. Our project involves producing awareness tools and providing prisons with handwashing facilities. The targeted people are the political prisoners who are exposed, then all the others as well as the women prisoners. We plan to provide individual care items to female prisoners so that they avoid having to share them.

Support Needed

Funds needed: We need at least $3000 (USD) to purchase sanitizing gel and masks for political prisoners. 

Other support: Volunteers, Access to information
