Sector Studies
Somalia Case Study--Mid-decade review of progress towards education
for all. (PDF
format--180K). Courtesy of: UNESCO -International Consultative Forum
on Education for All (EFA) in Paris. By G. Bennaars, H. Seif & D. Mwangi;
Nairobi, 1996.
This paper is part of a review undertaken by the EFA forum to assess
the progress of countries in their efforts to attain 'Education for All'
since the World Conference on Education in Jomtien, Thailand in 1990. Stocktaking
of progress has utilized a variety of methods. To supplement statistics
and reports from ministries of education all over the world, the EFA forum
asked a number of independent researchers in developing countries to provide
a more in-depth view of 'Education for All' in their countries. A few interesting
experiences in provision of basic education have been selected for publication.
They reflect issues of current debate such as education for the girl child,
provision of education in the mother tongue of the pupils to promote learning
as well as efforts to provide education in emergency situations due to
war and conflict.

Brief: Education in Somalia had long been in a state of crisis due to neglect and lack of resources. Extensive destruction and looting of school facilities during the civil war completed the process of disruption. In most of the country, no education had taken place in the three to five years preceeding this report. During 1993, UNICEF initiated efforts towards the revival of basic education as a vital aspect of the rehabilitation of Somali civil society in general.
