3370: NATIONWIDE | South Sudan’s Teachers: Learning to Lead the Classroom

Radio Miraya

About

What happens when the teacher also needs to finish school? In South Sudan’s Wulu County, 60 teachers are receiving support to complete their secondary education. This World Teachers’ Day, Nationwide examines what it takes to strengthen teaching, from qualifications and classroom confidence to support for women in the profession. With donor funding uncertain, the discussion asks whether gains can survive beyond a project, and what children stand to lose when the people teaching them lack the support they themselves need.

Guests:


    Shabnam Baloch, Oxfam Country Director, South Sudan
    Samora Makwach, teacher and Regional Teachers Initiative for Africa participant

    Namara Patrick, Roving Teacher Trainer
