Discussion details

Mark Chapple is the Country Coordinator for the four-year DFID funded initiative, “Education for All - Alternative Education for South Sudan”. The programme aims to meet the needs of the ‘lost generation’ - young adults and teenagers who missed out on education during the 20-year conflict with the North. The programme condenses the eight years of primary school into four years, to allow this group to move more rapidly onwards to further training or into the market to become economically active. 

To support the Voices & Views, "Education in South Sudan", Mark gave an interesting Skype interview about the situation and context. Please listen to this in the two links below:
