Yemen’s Minister of Technical Education and Vocational Training, Ghazi Ahmed Ali Mohsen, discussed with the Deputy Representative of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in Yemen, Sherin Faraki, the aspects of a joint cooperation in the field of technical and vocational training on Tuesday.
During the meeting, Mohsen reviewed the difficulties facing the development of the technical education sector, especially in light of the destruction of at least 72 technical education facilities in different governorates by the Saudi-led coalition.
He also expressed the hope of the Ministry that UNICEF support many programs of technical education, especially with regard to the printing of curricula and the rehabilitation and restoration of technical institutes and the allocation of a monthly incentive for the cadres and education and training of girls.
For his part, the Deputy Representative of UNICEF reviewed organization support programs in many areas, including health, nutrition, education, child protection, water and sanitation.
Faraki pointed out that support is currently focused on education, the fight against cholera and the danger of famine, expressing the organization’s readiness to aid technical education programs and push children to join technical and vocational institutes.
Both officials stressed on the formation of a technical engineering team from the relevant sectors of the ministry, as well as a technical team from the organization to visit a number of institutes in capital Sana’a to review the problems facing the institutes and identify the needs to be provided by the organization.
