The United Nations Children’s Fund, UNICEF, says it has received 2.9 million U.S. dollars from the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) to bolster education in Somalia.
UNICEF said the fund would enhance access and improve the quality of basic education for crisis-affected children in Puntland, northeast Somalia.
UNICEF said the new funding, which comes amid the COVID-19 pandemic, would play an integral part in supporting the UN agency.
It said the Puntland Ministry of Education and partners would work together to increase equitable access to education, improve the quality of education and strengthen education management systems in Puntland.
