On 01 November, Omar, 6 in class at a school in Ramadi, Anbar Governorate. UNICEF is currently working to support the clean up and rehabilitation of 100 schools in Anbar.
3.5 million school-aged Iraqi children are missing out on education, which means they are at increased risk of early marriage, child labour and recruitment into armed groups. One in every five schools is out use due to conflict.
UNICEF is working to get children back to learning across Iraq, including in Anbar, a Governorate that has been particularly hard hit by conflict and high levels of internal displacement.
In Anbar UNICEF and partners are refurbishing and extending school structures; providing desks, textbooks and school bags; and helping children to catch up on lost school time, as well as to reintegrate into the education system.
From January to September 2016 across Iraq UNICEF helped get more than 116,000 out-of-school children back into classrooms, installed pre-fab school structures benefitting 42,000 displaced children, and distributed school supplies and learning materials to more than 280,000 children.
UNICEF also trained more than 2,350 education staff, helped 383 schools improve their governance practices, mainstreamed life skills education in 439 schools, and helped reopen schools in previously inaccessible areas like Anbar.
