On Sunday, 23 July, classrooms in Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh were filled with 300,000 children eager to start their first day of school.According to UNICEF,"one million refugees, half of whom are children, live in densely populated camps in Bangladesh as of 2017, when they fled violence and persecution from neighboring Myanmar."
Yett stressed the importance for children to"continue their education" during their permanence in Bangladesh to ensure"a safe and dignified return" in Myanmar.The areas of interventions touched on several groups of young Rohingya. Parallel to new possibilities for older children,"a dedicated campaign brought more than 13,000 children who were not attending school into classrooms.
In fact, due to social norms,"parents are often reluctant to send girls to school when they have reached puberty." The press release concluded by underlining the introduction of the Myanmar curriculum for the first time during this academic year.
