Joint par téléphone depuis Bruxelles, le ministre Manigat s’est dit soulagé que les discussions entamées depuis plus d’une année aient pu aboutir, car la conjoncture laissait planer des doutes sur l’aboutissement de ce financement. « J’ai eu l’opportunité de participer à un panel avec Jutta Urpilainen, commissaire européenne pour les partenariats internationaux et son équipe et continué à plaider auprès de nos partenaires européens que l’avenir et la stabilité d’Haïti passent par l’éducation des enfants, adolescents et des jeunes, en particulier par la formation technico-professionnelle».

After almost 12 years of crisis, more than 2.4 million children are out of school in Syria. Of these, 40% are girls, the most vulnerable category. One in 5 children of school age does not attend any type of educational activity, and almost 3 million of them live in rural areas. One of the main factors hindering the return to school is, in fact, the lack of school buildings, destroyed by the years of war. Structures put to the test by the ongoing conflict and, recently, also by the earthquake that struck the north of the country last February.

Dopo quasi 12 anni di crisi, in Siria oltre 2,4 milioni di minori sono fuori dal sistema scolastico.
Di questi il 40% è rappresentato da bambine, la categoria più vulnerabile. In generale quasi un minore su 5 in età scolastica non frequenta alcun tipo di attività formativa, e quasi 3 milioni di loro vive in aree rurali.

Armed conflicts, forced displacement, climate change and other crises increased the number of crisis-impacted children in need of urgent quality education to 224 million, according to a new Global Estimates Study issued today by Education Cannot Wait (ECW), the United Nations global fund for education in emergencies.

Quelque 224 millions d'enfants touchés par les conflits armés, les déplacements forcés, le changement climatique et d'autres crises ont besoin en urgence d'une éducation de qualité, a alerté, mercredi, le fonds mondial des Nations unies pour l’éducation dans les situations d’urgence et de crise prolongée, « Éducation sans délai » (Education Cannot Wait, ECW).

Laut einer neuen Untersuchung haben 224 Millionen Kinder dringenden Bedarf an Unterstützung für eine qualitativ hochwertige Bildung und sind 72 Millionen nicht eingeschult. Qualitativ hochwertige Bildung ist der Schlüssel zu besseren Lernergebnissen.

This access to a quality education is especially crucial when migrant children are in a state of transition, said Yasmine Sherif, executive director of Education Cannot Wait, the United Nations global fund for education in emergencies and protracted crises. She emphasized that education is a key driver in building economic resilience and social cohesion. 

“Without the safety, protection and hope that quality education provides, innocent refugee children face incredible and unimaginable risks,” she said. “Governments must do all they can to ensure that children survive and develop to their full potential.”
