The Italian Ambassador to Pakistan Marilina Armellin has taken initiative to educate out-of-school children in Pakistan through Interactive Radio Instruction (IRI).
Italy to launch initiative to educate out-of-school children in Pakistan
Education remains a distant dream for many children in rural areas of Pakistan. Therefore, she took up the initiative to highlight the benefits of enrollment and education through radio broadcast.
The initiative will also help in sharing practical information on sustainable development practices for schools.
In an exclusive interview with APP, the ambassador disclosed that a groundbreaking IRI initiative was set to unfold next month, poised to redefine access to learning for millions of out-of-school children.
Italy, in collaboration with local partners and supported by UNESCO, will launch a pioneering “Radio Education” programme to bridge educational gaps and empower underprivileged communities across Pakistan.
Pakistan faces stark challenges with a 62% literacy rate and significant disparities in educational access.
