Recently, we had the privilege of speaking with Mayimunah, the secretary of the Brilliant Club at a primary school in Mukono, Uganda. This student-led club operates under the guidance of focal teachers who facilitate the “good schools” intervention as part of Children’s Rights and Violence Prevention Fund’s, (CRVPF) Prevention of Violence Against Children and Young People program (PVAC). The intervention’s primary goal is to cultivate safe school environments that are free from violence and allow a child to begin and complete their education. During our conversation, we delved into Mayimunah’s role in the club and explored the significant impact it has had on her school community.
