Due to the Covid19 pandemic, many schools were forced to switch to remote learning. Nevertheless, the reality is that not everyone has successfully succeeded in this endeavour because of a lack of hardware and an unreliable Internet connection.
Consequently, thousands of children were unable to continue their education in the newly restricted conditions.
According to UNESCO, a third of primary school students in the world, or about four hundred and sixty-three thousand children, are still unable to receive their education remotely. The problem is most acute in Africa, where the most impoverished regions and remote villages are located.
Volunteer organisations are valiantly involved in attempting to solve this dilemma, but, to date, this help has still not been enough.
Therefore, to give children a chance for full-fledged remote learning, the authorities of Africa and nearby countries need to take drastic measures. For example, to organise moving classrooms in buses, as was done in the United States, or to provide students with computers at the expense of the state budget.
According to statistics, one in four children in Africa are unable to receive remote learning, and in areas with low incomes and unemployment, this figure is even higher.
