**“Helwa Ya Balady”.. Educational Games and Messages Promoting Citizenship Values Among Children**

Good News Organization believes that childhood is the golden age for instilling values ​​and principles. Therefore, through "Halwa Ya Baladi" (My Country is Beautiful) project, we have designed games—such as Snakes and Ladders, card games, and puzzles—that incorporate awareness-raising messages to foster the mindset and practices of citizenship. As children play and enjoy themselves, they internalize these messages and slogans, helping to build a society that is conscious, peaceful, respectful and accepting of others, and deeply connected to—and committed to building—the nation. Good News Organization participated in the National Identity Conference, "Deep Roots and an Extended Vision," held at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, where visiting children played, had fun, and engaged with fundamental concepts of citizenship through these games. #CitizenshipIsALife #OurChildrenAreOurHopeAndFuture

No to FGM. No to Violence. Yes to Women’s Safety.

As part of the comprehensive development project for Al-Masayeh village, Good News Organization held an awareness seminar regarding the harmful effects of female genital mutilation (FGM) and violence against women. The event was attended by Dr. Samia Al-Wazzan (Consultant Obstetrician-Gynecologist). 65 women from Al-Masayeh village in Naqada attended, Key topics addressed by Dr. Samia included: Addressing misconceptions: She clarified that FGM has no medical basis or benefit; on the contrary, it is a crime involving the cutting of perfectly healthy, intact tissue from a girl's body. Immediate harms: Severe bleeding, acute infections, and shock resulting from pain. Long-term harms: Permanent sexual and reproductive health issues, future childbirth complications, and lasting psychological effects such as fear and trauma. The doctor explained the various forms of violence against women, discussing different types—whether physical, psychological, or social. She emphasized that silence regarding violence only exacerbates the tragedy and highlighted that a woman's mental and physical well-being is the foundation of the entire family's health. At the end of the seminar, there was active engagement from the women present, with many questions raised about how to cope with societal and familial pressures. The doctor urged them to abandon the practice of female genital mutilation and to spread awareness among mothers and women in the community, ensuring the correct information is shared and the safety and health of girls are safeguarded. #Women'sHealthIsFamilyAndCommunityHealth#
