Policy to support girls education

The knowledge and the skills that I have gained  in this program, has made me to identify so many ways that I can use to encourage girls education in South South. 

Based on the current situation in my country and as a teacher, what I will do to encourage girls education is through my teaching profession. The best way I will do this is by making my teaching more learners centered and gender sensitivity. Since the impact I will make might not be much, I will therefore advocate for the curriculum to be revised and train more teachers on students-centered teaching methods and gender sensitivity. 

I believe, this will motivate many girls to go to school

Colleagues, don't you think this can play a big role in encouraging girls education?

My Plan When I Return to S. Sudan

I understand that my country is one of the fragile countries in Africa. And I believe that I have gained knowledge and skills from Education in Emergencies lesson and Curriculum Development class which I think will add to the development of my country.

However, upon my return home, I will resume teaching. And what tops the list of my plans is to arrange with some of my colleagues from this program to go and meet the ministry of general education to let them know about the fact that we have qualifications in curriculum development planning and that we need to be part of the team who plan and develop curriculum. As noted by Cahill (2010), if the education programming is well designed and the education activities provided are of high quality, schools can provide an entry point for encouraging conflict resolution, tolerance and respect for human rights.

So, my goal is to see a reform in educational system of my country.

Friends, do you believe in this?

Qualified Teachers Flee the Profession

A country that experience conflict experience lots of disruption in education system. 

One of the troubles is that school activities are run by the majority of unqualified teachers. Simply because, teachers who qualify in the field flee the teaching profession for jobs with good pay in various UN agencies, NGO's and other International and national organizations who get attracted to the states experiencing conflict. This however, makes the quality of education in emergency situation to suffer in the hands of untrained teachers hence failure in meeting educational target in such arena. 

Conclusively, the trouble in education system in emergency situation is triggered by the inability of the government to fund teachers a viable salary during crisis since good salary is one of the motivating factor for better teaching.  

Colleagues, don't you think this situation is similar to what we experience at home right now?
