Your government must agree to improving the level of basic education, skill training and literacy among young people.
What steps has your government taken in promoting education for all young people?
Has the national school curriculum been reformed? If so, what have been the major changes? What have been the successes and constraints?
Does the national school curriculum promote gender equality? Does it embrace a multi-cultural society?
In what ways has your government made a commitment to life-long education?
Have NGOs been active in promoting education for young people? What about youth-to-youth (peer education) programs?
What are the factors that hinder young people from going to or remaining in school?
Let me know if you have answered more than two questions. All in all, go ask civil society and your government for the answers. Stop the rot of ignorance, educate yourself now. Don’t be a fucking complacent idiot.
