What happened in 2007?
Since 2000 the budget allocated to education has dropped from 16.2% to 11.8%, disrupting education plans. Campaigning for a greater share of the budget to go to education and a human chain event was organised in Conakry and 30 schools across the country. Parents, teachers and students presented their situation in schools including a school with an average class size of 197 students. Children used drama, poems, and simple speeches to expose corruption, and cases of sexual exploitation at school. Following a song from popular artist Johanna Barry ‘Lets Love Children’, the National Education Minister promised the state would commit 20% of the 2008 budget on education.
