More than 305,000 children in Mozambique have had their education interrupted because of damage caused by Cyclone Idai, UNICEF said today. Over 3,400 classrooms were damaged or destroyed in cyclone-affected regions, including 2,713 in the Sofala area alone. In some cases, schools require extensive rehabilitation after being used as emergency shelters for children and families displaced by the storm. These school facilities should be reconstructed to withstand natural disasters in the future. In some of the areas affected, schools will need extensive repair and rehabilitation after being converted into makeshift emergency shelters for children and families displaced by the huge storm, which barreled inland off the coast of Mozambique on 14 April, also causing damage and flooding across large areas of Zimbabwe and Malawi. UNICEF is urging authorities to reconstruct schools in a more robust way, so they can withstand natural disasters in the future, and they...

Hey my name is Bokamoso Madeline Makati. I was born and raised in Botswana, Gaborone. I speak English, Setswana and know just a little bit of French. I was raised by a single mother who taught me how to love and not judge people on their situations and I hope to be as good as a mother as she was. I am such a fanatic about sports I just love the rush and intensity while playing although I also love staying in the comfort of my room 24/7. I’m an atheist by choice but I grew up in a Christian house and I have the decency to respect other beliefs as long as they respect my choice. My mother passed away when I was 12 so my goal at the moment is to continue her legacy and follow in her footsteps by pursuing law. I also want to do law because it’s one of the money ways I feel I can make a difference to people that need my help. The world is messed up as it is, I just want to be apart of the small percentage of people trying to fix it. I hate liars, rapists, racists, cheaters, fa...

With 70% of Africa’s population under the age of 30, we as a continent are presented with a great opportunity and, possibly, a great challenge. Young Africans today are taking actions that not only have an immediate impact, but will also determine the future of the continent for decades to come. Never has there been such weighty responsibility on the shoulders of young people. Never has there been the influence in the hands of young people like the influence they carry now. But for Africa to reap the dividends she has longed for, it is up to our generation to make sure that influence is channelled correctly and directed towards relevant issues that affect not only ourselves, but generations after us. This can only be achieved if we come together as young people and begin to address the challenges before us as a continent. The role of African youth is drastically changing, but so are some of the challenges we face, such as employability and entrepreneurship opportu...

There’s nothing more beautiful than a crown of healthy, natural hair. So if you’ve ever had a case of bad breakage, then you know it can be a total bummer. Brittle, damaged hair gets in the way of length retention, weakens strands, and limits your style versatility. Definitely not a good look. Luckily, breakage isn’t the end of the world. If you find yourself in a tangled mess, these tips will help get your kinks and curls back on track. First things first: It's important to identify the culprit of your hair woes. Breakage can be caused by a number of things, including lack of moisture, overprocessing from chemicals, heat damage, and overall poor hair-care practices. According to New York City–based celebrity hairstylist and Hair Rules salon owner Anthony Dickey , textures that happen to be naturally drier, like kinky, curly, or coarse straight textures, are easily prone to breakage and therefore require some extra TLC. “Split ends, single strand knots, and tangl...

Wondering how to study for finals? With a a little strategic planning, you can get the most out of your study sessions. Discover study tips that will help you create a game plan, retain information, stay focused and walk into your tests with confidence. 1. Understand your goals. "Students follow a series of requirements, and it becomes very easy to feel like you're simply jumping through a series of hoops as opposed to understanding why that class and that test are relevant to you," says Colin Gruenwald of Kaplan Test Prep . "You have to ask why you're going to invest the time and energy to do well on a test. Why do you intend to be the student who gets an A?" 2. Prioritize the tests that matter the most. "It's a mistake to consider all of your finals equal if you're materially better at one subject than another," says Gruenwald. "Some students think that they should commit equal time to studying for each te...
