Njojane

Njojane is in one of the hottest areas in eSwatini. There is a scarcity of rain, so it is dusty with not much opportunity to farm. The Great Mbuluzi River, which is one of the largest rivers of eSwatini, runs near this community. This is where most families fetch their water for household chores and other uses. The homes in this area are not far from each other. The majority of the children from this area live with extended family members as most of their parents are unemployed. The children also walk long distances to school because the schools are scattered from each other.

eSwatini

Only slightly smaller than New Jersey, Eswatini is almost completely bordered by South Africa, with a portion of the country bordered by Mozambique. More than half of the population live below the poverty line, and around 38% of the population is under the age of 15.
