1/11: In #Afghanistan, 1.2M are currently denied access to schools above Grade 6. For younger girls, factors such as a limited number of schools, lack of female teachers further hamper access to education. What can we do to address this inaccessibility? - A ๐Ÿงต
2/11 Despite limited access to formal education, our research in Afghanistan has found that displaced girls and boys use informal means of education to continue learning in safe spacesโฌ‡๏ธ
3/11 These include studying in madrasas, mosques, brothers tutoring their sisters at home & literacy classes for young women. These informal learning methods & safe spaces offer starting points for #humanitarian actors to build upon existing initiatives and bridge learning gaps.

1/n
A friend and a fitness coach (Pamela) shared how a woman was going to be sent out of their house because she owed 2 years' rent and couldn't afford to pay. Her husband has a stroke, and she had to pause her business because all her money went to the running of the house.

2/n
The rent for 2 years was N300,000. Her last child, Chidera, couldn't go to school because of tuition. Thankfully, Pamela raised funds through friends & family to pay the woman's rent, money to continue her business and foodstuff for the house.

God bless Pamela for doing this๐Ÿ™

It's the world's first #InternationalDayofEducation! There's no better time to reaffirm our commitment to inclusive, equitable and quality education for all children than this first #EducationDay. We celebrate the increasing attention and clamor for education across the world.
We recognize the important role of education in lifting children and families out of poverty and recreating a better future for our society. The future can only be as good as the education we give to the children today but we have reasons to be concerned today. Here's why
