Supporting girls’ education

The conflict has had major consequence on education among other key sectors with destruction of school facilities among other key community support structures; which has had a serious impact on access to protective education for thousands of vulnerable girls and women, and is likely to continue.

Vocational training for youth and women

Education standards in the country still lag behind with indicators being ranked lowest in the world and have deteriorated further due to the ongoing conflict, which has forced more than one million children and adolescents out of school.

Awareness on reproductive health

Girls from the displaced communities are also facing a myriad of protection related issues especially who have to fetch firewood and water in unfamiliar environments face the risk of rape or forced marriages; hence the need for safe protected learning spaces where they can interact with their peers and learn life skills and an opportunity for lost children to be reunified with their parents. Basic Education is virtually nonexistent as the youngest girls are often left at home while older ones undertake livelihoods actions especially in Greater Pibor.
