Encouragement of girls education in South Sudan

When I return to South Sudan, I will encourage girls education by being activist, to participate fully in promotion of girls education, meet girls in the communities, schools and talk to them. As we talk possibly, I will talk about importance of education and show them examples of women who studied and are leading better lives, as I also becomes a role model to them. In addition, I will involve my self in sensitization or awareness programs, through the media, to have talk shows, drama, educative songs and other educative measures, on radios, televisions and during community gatherings about girls education.

My plan for South Sudan as I return back .

When I return to South Sudan, I will actively involve in improvement of standards of Education in South Sudan. Through the use of learner centered teaching and learning methods, because this method help students learn from each other, unites students together as they participate in group activities like discussion and greatly improves their metacognitive skills. I will do this  through the use of my knowledge of curriculum development and I am determined to improve lives of girls in South Sudan, through promotion of girl child education, to  lay quality foundation for future parenthood and proper up bringing of disciplined Educated children. who will be the future citizens, human resource and leaders of the young nation. I will achieve this by the different knowledge, I acquired over the year. For example leadership skills, management skills, research, and writing proposals or grant proposals to support projects that will support improvement of education and girl child education in South Sudan.

The impact of conflict in secondary education.

Conflict disrupts schooling of students, both girls and boys. As well, leads to the absence of teachers, since they escape for their lives. Thus when conflict starts, most schools are closed due to insecurity. This leaves students to stay at home for a long period of time. Students end up dropping out of school. In this period, most girls get pregnant or married and boys get exposed to drug abuse and alcohol consumption, which is  not easy to stop.During the conflict, some students are abducted. Abducted girls are raped or become wives to the soldiers or rebels, while abducted boys are trained to become young soldiers, who are still energetic to learn many fighting tactics . This  negatively impact the continuation of education for many girls and boy who have been victims of conflict.
