“With less than half of children in South Sudan currently in school, inclusive education isn’t optional – it’s essential,” this blog states.
It describes a programme by Education Cannot Wait in South-Sudan that promotes inclusion, in this case teacher training in sign-language and braille. There are other initiatives within this programme like providing assistive devices.
“Despite these investments and the dedication of implementing partners and educators, education continues to be one of the most underfunded sectors in South Sudan.”
The blog ends on a positive note: “When Beatrice [a teacher who learned sign language] returns to her community, she’ll be more than a teacher – she’ll be an advocate, helping children who’ve long been excluded enter the classroom and create a future beyond it.”
