Liberia: After war, it’s Back-to-School for children
06.11.2003
UNICEF says that it expects hundreds of thousands of children to return to studies during Liberia’s Back-to-School campaign - thousands of them for the first time in their lives. Speaking from New York on the first day of the massive education push, UNICEF Executive Director Carol Bellamy said that it is expected that increasing numbers of children - up to 750,000 - will take to their books as the effort to reach them extends into still troubled counties.
