Zambia: UNICEF helps 60,000 children receive schooling in wake of floods

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has provided educational kits to jump start the educations of 60,000 school pupils in six flood-ravaged provinces of Zambia. UNICEF has donated 640 ‘school-in-a-box’ kits to the Southern African country’s Ministry of Education. Each box contains such items as flipchart pads, markers, pens, crayons, erasers, exercise books, rulers, pencils, chalk and chalkboards.
