| Education
in Crisis Situations
In its work in education in crisis situations,
the BEPS team strives to address, instill and put into
practice enduring values of respect, trust, equity and
social responsibility. This resolve signals a commitment
to cooperation and collaboration in efforts at reconstruction,
education and economic and social prosperity from local
communities to national governments.
After years of conflict and oppression in Afghanistan, BEPS provided
a forum for the first national meeting on education in Kabul after the
fall of the Taliban. The Curriculum Commission and other Ministry of
Education officials, NGOs and provincial participants will gather in
Kabul to discuss curriculum reform and teacher-training needs. During
25 years of conflict, NGOs and grassroots actors provided education programming
in the absence of government support. In this time of rebuilding, the
Ministry of Education has requested the assistance of BEPS as it aims
to restore oversight and work toward a vision for the future of education
in Afghanistan.
