534. As for literacy and non-formal education (AENF), a national strategy was
formulated and validated in January, 2014 and will be implemented through the
"faire-faire" strategy for the period 2014-2025, including the manual which was
validated in February 2014. These two strategies emanate from the AENF national
policy, which lays special emphasis on educated young girls and women, especially
in rural areas.
535. Actions in favour of literacy and non-formal education focused on:
the revision, in April 2014, of literacy and post-literacy curricula taking into
account the specific needs of target groups, especially women;
the integration of literacy training into women's groups dealling with
agricultural, agropastoral and artisanal production;
the exceptional support in 2014 from the government, through a grant for
functional literacy of 1,200 women nationwide for 2014-2015. Literacy NGOs
were selected for a partnership leading to the implementation of the functional
literacy project for women;
an awareness campaign organized to highlight the importance of literacy for
sustainable development and to encourage community solidarity for women's
literacy;
the development of a functional literacy programme around platforms by the
Ministry of Women’s Affairs in collaboration with the Ministry of Grassroots
Development;
the extension to other localities in 2010 of the strategy called "a literate
woman, three girls enrolled" through the project "Women's Literacy and
Increasing Girls' Education" to other localities in 2010;
specific technical training on simplified accounting and management of
income-generating activities for the benefit of neo-literate women, members of
production groups;
the training of about 150 supervisors and literacy educators on gender
mainstreaming in literacy programmes;
the production of post-literacy materials for the benefit of literate women and
girls;
536. Concerning literacy, between 2009 and 2014, 4,185 literacy teachers, including
1,284 women, supervised 73,840 learners, including 56,110 women enrolled in
literacy centres.
