More than 200 schools in Faryab, damaged by past wars and recent natural disasters, need reconstruction.
Residents of Faryab say that the destruction of these schools has made the educational process difficult for students. Currently, students are studying in open spaces and rented houses.
They are calling on the Islamic Emirate and aid organizations to provide not only basic reconstruction but also desks, chairs, and safe drinking water.
Najibullah, a religious scholar, said: “Children are continuing their education in mosque corners, rooms, and under trees because there are no buildings. We urgently need the schools to be repaired.”
Abdul Jamil, a resident of Faryab, said: “The war destroyed the schools, and our children are studying in some rented buildings, which is very difficult.”
Khudai Berdi, another resident of Faryab, said: “They are destroyed, dilapidated, with no desks or chairs. The children of the nation are studying on bare ground with no proper place or drinking water. The children are in a lot of trouble.”
Mohammad Tahir Jawad, the Director of Education for Faryab, has called on the central government, aid organizations, traders, and philanthropists to assist in the reconstruction of these schools.
The Director of Education for Faryab added: “Our 200 schools in Faryab have been damaged by past wars and natural disasters and need repairs. One example is the central high school of Dawlatabad district where we are currently located.”
Meanwhile, besides schools, some other public facilities in various provinces of the country have also been destroyed by past wars and recent natural disasters, requiring reconstruction and renovation.
