UNESCO equips Afghan police with literacy skills
Funded by the Japanese government, the 20-month initiative aims to provide literacy opportunities to 3,000 Afghan National Police officers in the capital and the provinces.
Three-quarters of the population in Afghanistan has low literacy or none at all, and the national police force is no exception. This is why the UNESCO Kabul Office launched a programme in June 2011 entitled: “Literacy for Empowering Afghan Police - LEAP”.
It is hoped that greater literacy levels among police officers will contribute to bringing peace and security to Afghanistan.
