Food for Learning
In Eritrea,a small country in northeast Africa,approximately 80 percent of the population is illiterate.
That percentage is even higher for women.As in many developing countries,most Eritreans have traditional
ideas about the role of women.They believe that women should stay home and take care of the family and
should not get an education or look for a job.
These beliefs are one of the factors that prevent Eritrea and other developing countries from improving
their economic situation. Experience in many countries has shown that educated women have fewer children
and have more opportunities for improving their lives and the lives of their families.In Eritrea,in fact,there is
great need for improvement.It is one of the poorest countries in the world.For many Eritrean families,getting
enough food is a daily problem.
To deal with these problems,the Eritrean government,together with the World Food Program,has a new
program that offers food as a reward for learning. In primary schools,all the children receive food packages to
take home to their families.However,with the new program,the girls receive 50 percent more food than the
boys.This way,parents are encouraged to send their daughters to school rather than keeping them at home.
Another government program that aims to educate women is Food for Training. Managed by the National
Union of Eritrean Women,this pro缪m offers food rewards(also from the World Food Organization)to women
and older girls who are willing to join the program.Because of the war with Ethiopia,many women are bring-
ing up their families on their own.They often live in refugee camps,with no land of their own and no way to
earn money. Most of these women are illiterate and have no skills to find a job.They spend most of their day
looking for food and preparing it for their families.
The Food for Training program helps the teenagers and women change their lives.If they agree to join
he program,they receive a large package of food each month.In return,the women are required to attend free
literacy classes for two卜ours every day. When Food for Training started with classes in two regions of Eritrea,
5,000 girls and women joined in the first two months.It is especially popular with teenage girls,aged fourteen
to sixteen,who have never had a chance to go to school before.
The organizers of Food for Training also plan to offer other kinds of courses for women,using the same
system of food rewards.In these courses,they will teach women job skills and crafts,such as basket weaving.
These women will not only learn to read and write,but also become aware of what is going on in their coun-
try,and they will be able to have a voice in their future.
