Rehabilitation of schools in provinces affected by the ethnic conflict in Solomon Islands

Duration: November 2002– October 2003
Budget: US$309,000
Implementing Agencies: UNDP

The outbreak of violent conflict in Solomon Islands resulted in massive destruction of schools, thus leading to growing obstacles to deliver adequate education to children and youth. The programme subsequently supported efforts towards improving the learning environment for children and adolescents in several conflict-affected provinces.
