CWN Editor's Note: “Africa has not taken care of her children,” said Malawi Archbishop Luke Msusa, vice chairman of the Association of Member Episcopal Conferences in Eastern Africa (AMECEA). “It may not be the issue of sexual abuse of minors only but, when you look at Africa there is the challenge of children who are being trained as child soldiers, who are being trained to fight; there is the issue of child trafficking where children are taken out of their families to be sold somewhere; there is also the issue of child labor.”
