Getting girls into school: good performance by pupils from SSAP centres
As part of the drive to get girls into school and keep them there, the SCOLFILLE girls' schooling support project has made it a priority to get girls who have never been to school or who left school early back into school, thanks to the SSAP (Stratégie de Scolarisation Accélérée à Passerelle - Accelerated Schooling Bridge Strategy). For the past two to three years, pupils from the SSAP centres have been integrated into the mainstream school system in host schools. What has become of them?

In order to support the socio-professional integration of young internally displaced persons, Action Education has initiated an emergency micro-project using its own funds for their training. Ten (10) young girls and boys benefiting from the micro-project are placed in training centres and apprenticeship workshops in Léo, the capital of the Sissili province in central western Burkina Faso. The trades chosen by the beneficiaries include hairdressing, sewing, computer graphics and secretarial work, motorbike mechanics and welding.
Burkina Faso: drinking water for schoolchildren in Tambao
The Ecole Eclairée Centre de Ressources pour une Education de Qualité (EECREQ) project has implemented a micro-project financed by the Mouvement bénévole de France. The major achievement is a positive borehole in the Tambao public primary school in the commune of Cassou, Ziro province, in central western Burkina Faso. The school has three classrooms and no nearby drinking water supply, so pupils and teaching staff had to walk more than two kilometres to get water.
