The restoration and rehabilitation of hundreds of schools in various Yemeni governorates creates an encouraging educational environment and the continuation of the educational process. PWP’s PMU is well-aware that children males and females have the right to education regardless of the circumstances and has made it an objective that children will continue to go schools regardless. Indicators confirm that the rehabilitation of schools has had a positive impact on education in Yemen, where drop out rates have continued to decrease as dozens of more schools have been rehabilitated and restored bringing back closed and out of service school which are closest to population groups to life. The number of regular students attending regular classes, especially female students, have doubled. in addition, schools have become safer after the restoration of the roofs ending fears that they may collapse over the heads of students.

Most schools in Yemen are out of service and have become a discouraging factor or students to stay out of schools. Some have even become dangerous grounds threatening the lives of students and constant fears that the roofs may collapse over their heads. Most of the schools had been turned into shelter to house IDP’s, and some havebecome run down due to neglect and lack of maintenance. Therefore, the restoration and rehabilitation of these schools by PWP has breathed new life to these shcools and revived hope for thousands of students to cross into the future.

Progress

Interventions by PWP in the education sector are currently limited to the rehabilitation and restoration of existing schools. This intervention has provided a stimulating and encouraging learning environment for both males and females students alike. It has led to increased school enrolment rates compared to the situation before the interventions.
During the period January-December 2023, 430 schools were rehabilitated at a cost of $ 4.7 million, benefiting about 122,000 students. These projects created 555,000 Man/month temporary work opportunities.
