Dorothy W. Knapp, former deputy country director for Future generations Afghanistan, writes for Thomas College Magazine about the challenges involved in improving Afghanistan's education system, and how they can be overcome using our unique methodology. From the article Raising Education Brick by Brick in Afghanistan:
"Future Generations experienced significant and rapid gains in girls' and women's literacy in the communities in which it worked. There were two reasons. First, the group ensured that the community members themselves prioritized and addressed their most pressing needs-health, income generation, education and environmental destruction. Second, the organization integrated literacy with health, which was often the communities' highest priority and centered around maternal and child health, at every opportunity."
