The EU has allocated 10 million euros to implement the program “Promoting quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all”.
The project is being implemented by the Ministry of Education and Research with the support of UNICEF and UNDP. The initiative aims to strengthen the education system and create a modern and inclusive environment for all children. The program, with a total budget of €10 million, will improve the digital skills of teachers, support the development of digital educational resources and create an Open Educational Resources Platform. As part of the program, out of 35 model schools to be created in the coming years, UNICEF and UNDP selected 10 to be renovated and equipped with modern equipment. STEEM (science, technology, engineering, arts, entrepreneurship, mathematics) skills will be developed here, and educational institutions will provide school buses to facilitate access to schools for students from rural areas. In addition, career guidance events will be organized to help improve the connection between general education and the labor market. The Ministry of Education will also receive assistance in organizing access to education for children with special needs. Special equipment will be purchased and teachers and support staff will be trained in its use. //28.03.2024 – InfoMarket.
