In April 2023, Womanity concluded a partnership agreement with War Child Canada to take over 8 Community Based Education (CBE) classes in the Bagrami disctrict and got the approval from the Ministry of Education to continue operate in 2023.
These classes just concluded grade 1 and were supposed to stop hadn't Womanity taken over. But thanks to this agreement, 240 children (67% girls) are now continuing their education in grade 2 in a community that sees a huge need for community based education and where, with more funds, we are determined to expand our work.
We are now working on distributing all the necessary equipment and stationery and ensuring that the classrooms and the education environment is conducive for girls and boys to learn.
We are also negotiating ways to restart vocational training classes for secondary or post-secondary aged girls. This is resulting more complex as is directly affected by the current bans of the defacto authority on post-grade 6 education for girls. We are still hopeful that short term courses can be organised and are contacting possible partners to enable them.
