NCHD to impart education to 1100 rural women
Staff Reporter
National Commission for National Development will educate 1100 villager women in different centres set up in district Muzaffargarh. While talking to APP, General Manager Malik Kher Muhammad disclosed that the organisation had imparted basic education to 76,000 women. He said women education was vital to put the country on road to progress and prosperity. Local Community leader Muhammad Ismail lamented that the education among women was ignored deliberately and its results was backwardness.
Speakers at the seminar called on government and all stakeholders in the education sector to pay critical attention to issues concerning girls’ education in the country. Under Article 25 - A, the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, “education is a fundamental right for children 5-16 years, requiring urgent actions for access, equity and equality.” A crucial factor in this regard is mother’s literacy rate, which helps in determining children’s education and health. In Pakistan (rural), only one in three women are literate, according to Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) 2010 which was conducted in 32 rural districts of Pakistan. UNESCO representative Tahira stated “investment in girls’ education is possibly the best investment that can be made in the developing world.” She regretted that “54% Pakistanis are living in extreme poverty and unless integrated poverty reduction plan is not adopted we cannot develop as an educated state.”

The seminar highlighted that 73% of boys’ enrolment as compared to only 57% of girls in Pakistan and even when having enrolled, girls are less likely to complete primary education, due to poverty, traditions and lack of protection.

After the floods, new schools provide normalcy and opportunities for communities in Pakistan
CHILDREN IN THE SMALL VILLAGE OF MULLAN WALLA, IN FLOOD-AFFECTED MUZAFFARGARH DISTRICT, WERE ALL SMILES WHEN THEY STARTED CLASS IN A RECENTLY-OPENED UNICEF-SUPPORTED SCHOOL.

The new three-classroom primary school in the province of Southern Punjab is bright, modern and airy – quite a difference from their old school, which was destroyed in last summer’s devastating floods. Each classroom is well-equipped with desks, chairs and a blackboard, along with learning materials like books, notebooks and learning games.
“We have been provided with a wonderful school, furniture and teaching materials,” says Headmaster Mukhtar Ahmad, who cannot speak highly enough of the new school. “This is something for us to rejoice. It is a lifetime reward for me that children of this area and village receive education and this will make me very happy."

The school is one of six prototype Transitional School Structures, built to varying designs that are being set up in Punjab, Sindh and Balochistan provinces. UNICEF is working with the Government of Pakistan, authorities and partners to select the most appropriate models for each one. The schools will then be rolled out in larger numbers.
Transition in recovery
The temporary schools represent a significant move from the emergency response phase of the flood disaster towards early recovery, and are a key component of the UN ‘Delivering as One’ programme.
The floods that hit Pakistan last July and September took a terrible toll on the country, affecting almost 20 million people. Children’s education was badly hit, with more than 10,000 schools damaged. Millions of families were displaced from their houses, seeking refuge in tent camps far from home.
There, UNICEF-supported Temporary Learning Centres, or tent classrooms, were set up, which enabled more than 260,000 children to continue their education, and in many cases attend school for the first time. In addition, UNICEF and partners distributed school supplies to more than half a million children.

With almost all displaced people having left camps and returned to their areas or origin, the emphasis is now on replacing tent schools with more permanent classroom solutions.
‘Learning critical’
UNICEF Representative in Pakistan Dan Rohrmann, who opened the latest school, says it is critical that learning continues during humanitarian responses, “in order to create some normalcy for children during times of crisis.”
“Even more important is that they can continue with more formal learning and help fulfil the fundamental right of all children to a quality education,” he explains. “The Transitional School Structures are quick to build and relatively inexpensive.”

So far 314 children are attending classes at the new school, up from 121 students before the floods. A further 45 are getting set to enrol. Many of the new students are girls who are being exposed to learning for the first time.
Right to education
The schools are also an important community resource. “Apart from their use in general education, schools offer a convergence point for a whole range of community engagement,” says Mr. Rohrmann. “They are essentially a hub for local development and wellbeing, and represent education’s central place in the community.”
These include providing a venue for mothers to have their children screened for malnutrition, and for children to learn the importance of good hygiene. Construction of the Transitional School Structures is supported by Australian Agency for International Development, the Government of Italy, and the OPEC Fund for International Development.
