Education Project

Tessaout Valley villages share existing governmental schools, which can be frequented by children, boys and girls, among the ages of 6 and 12. Sometimes, children, have to travel long distances to get to school. The Government is in charge of building them, but the communities are responsible for their conservation. Nowadays, we find much deteriorated schools without any kind of material to develop the educative labor of teachers. Pre-preparatory education is not envisaged, and secondary education, after 12 years old, is not favored.

General Objetives of our Project

• Increase and facilitate all levels of schooling.
• Promote the child´s global development since his/hers first years.
• Facilitate enrollment in primary schools of children, boys and girls, in the best conditions.
• Develop a social, familiar and attentive mentality towards children and teenagers.
• Basic knowledge training and education of women to improve the exclusion situation they are in.
• Put value in the role of women.
• Provide support to teenagers of the valley in their development and transition to adulthood.

In order to achieve these objectives, aG´s educative project is divided in three programs: CHILDHOOD, YOUTH AND WOMEN.

The Most Significant Achievements and Current Situation

• Implementation and maintenance of 6 classrooms of Primary Education and Literacy in Ifoulou (1), Azarzem (1), Toufghine (2), Agnsou Nouareg (2) villages.

Project Evolution

There have been a series of petitions from valley villages as a consequence of the observed results in the villages where the project has been implemented. It is our intention to start the project in one or two villages per year, hoping that it is slowly generalized in the whole Tessaout Valley. The rate of development will be determined by the financial soundness of the foundation.
