UNICEF: With help from the Government of Japan, Southern Sudan rebuilds its schools
Japan has contributed $8.6 million to Southern Sudan, aiding the region's school-rebuilding efforts following two decades of civil war that devastated the education system there. With the contribution from the Government of Japan, "we have been able to focus on school construction, " explained UNICEF Representative in Sudan Ted Chaiban. 'We have been able to construct 20 schools in south Sudan and rehabilitate another 20 schools, and the work is still ongoing.'
To see this progress firsthand, the Japanese Ambassador to Sudan, His Excellency Yuichi Ishii, recently visited remote villages where new schools have been built through a partnership between Southern Sudan, Japan and UNICEF.
