“Giving girls the chance to learn to read and write is one of the most important things we can do to increase their opportunities in life.
– Å gi jenter sjansen til å lære å lese og skrive, er noe av det viktigste vi kan gjøre for deres muligheter i livet.
And let’s not forget that education is a human right,” said Mr Solheim.
Og la oss ikke glemme at skolegang er en menneskerett, sier Solheim.
At the same time the Government will increase its support to Education for All through the World Bank’s EFA – Fast Track Initiative by NOK 45 million to NOK 140 million next year.
Regjeringen vil samtidig øke støtten til Verdensbankens ”Education for All – Fast Track Initiative” med 55 millioner kroner til 150 millioner kroner neste år.
One of the UN’s eight Millennium Development Goals is to ensure primary education for all girls and boys by 2015.
Ett av FNs åtte tusenårsmål er å sikre alle jenter og gutter skolegang innen 2015.
Most of these are girls.
Flesteparten av disse er jenter.
A very large proportion of these children also live in countries that are affected by conflict.
Svært mange av barna bor dessuten i land rammet av konflikt.
Education gives children a chance to break out of the vicious circle of poverty,” said Mr Solheim.
Skolegang gir barn en mulighet til å komme ut av fattigdommens onde sirkel, sier Solheim.
Norway has for many years provided support for education.
Norge har gitt betydelig bistand til utdanning i en årrekke.
Of the total funding for education of NOK 1.575 billion in 2007, NOK 689 million was channelled through the UN organisations UNICEF and UNESCO and through the World Bank, while NOK 886 million was allocated as bilateral aid.
Av den samlede støtten på 1,575 milliarder kroner, gikk 689 millioner kroner gjennom FN-organisasjonene Unicef og Unesco samt Verdensbanken, og 886 millioner kroner ble bevilget gjennom stat til stat-bistanden.
In December this year Norway is hosting the Education for All High-Level Meeting in cooperation with UNESCO, to further explore how the goal of providing education for all can be achieved.
I desember arrangerer Norge i samarbeid med Unesco en internasjonal konferanse om hvordan målet om utdanning til alle kan nås.
