The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), Education Cannot Wait (ECW), and Somaliland’s Ministry of Education have launched the second phase of the Education Cannot Wait programme, with a $6.9 million catalytic grant.
This initiative aims to implement a multi-year education response in Somaliland, focusing on improving access to quality education for children affected by ongoing crises.
This phase will prioritize marginalized and vulnerable children, including those affected by displacement, climate shocks, and conflict, ensuring access to safe learning environments and quality education resources.
The program, which also emphasizes gender inclusivity, teacher training, and community involvement, is a significant step toward bolstering Somaliland’s education system amid challenges.
