Particularly between March and September, during the school closures, the number increased dramatically. However, this is by no means mainly a matter of boys of the same age having sex with the girls, but of adult men and even relatives, <strong>who deliberately demand the sexual availability of young girls. <\/strong>A major problem is that society views this and <strong>domestic violence<\/strong>, which has also increased as a result of the pandemic, as an internal <strong>family matter <\/strong>. So if a girl or a woman bravely turns to the police and wants to file a report, she is usually <strong>turned away<\/strong>, even in cases of serious abuse and visible injuries.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What steps staff do in the projects for girls:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Regular talks<\/strong> for educational purposes are held with children and parents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Joint visits to the doctor with the steps trusted teacher<\/strong>, to obtain contraceptives. Unfortunately, this is also a major problem: only a few doctors prescribe one, do not have the right ones in stock, or accuse the girls of behaving too loosely \u2013 to put it mildly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Unfortunately, there are also isolated pregnancies among schoolgirls in our projects. In Okakarara and in Gobabis, the girls who are expecting a child are able to return to school after the birth. But that is rather the exception \u2013 without steps and the trained teams of Sonja Schneider-Waterberg, Jackie Sanjath and Santiago Narib, who\u00a0<strong>do everything they can to maintain contact with the girls,<\/strong>\u00a0they too would drop out of school.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>What you can do:<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Prevent another girl from dropping out of school with a guardian angel sponsorship.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Because the guardian angel children come to the steps projects after school, where in smaller groups and protected spaces they can talk about contraception and other measures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/en\/aktiv-werden\/schutzengel-gesucht\/\" role=\"button\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBECOME A GUARDIAN ANGEL<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-1080x1440.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-1080x1440.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-405x540.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-135x180.jpg 135w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-1320x1760.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Aquilla-Uapandera-prefect-2018-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2160\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-2160x1440.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-2160x1440.jpg 2160w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-810x540.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Schutzengelkinder-Okakarara_Kapitire-Vevangapi-und-Vjandamuje-aus-der-fuenften-Klasse-in-der-After-School-Care-1320x880.jpg 1320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2160px) 100vw, 2160px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">With a<strong>\u00a0Guardian Angel special donation <\/strong>help \u2013 with an amount of your choice.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/en\/spenden\/jetzt-spenden2\/?interval=0&#038;fb_item_id_fix=28010\" role=\"button\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tGUARDIAN ANGEL SPECIAL DONATION<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Was uns Sorgen bereitet Die Schwangerschaften bei M\u00e4dchen im schulpflichtigen Alter sind in Namibia im letzten Jahr laut offiziellen Berichten auf \u00fcber 3.600 F\u00e4lle gestiegen.
