The Ministry recalls that education "is the most important investment for the future of our young people". Emphasizing that experts in the field confirm that education is a key factor for poverty reduction.

The Ministry calls for the mobilization of everyone to guarantee the fundamental right to the education of our children by allowing them to return to the path of school in peace. The future of our young people and the nation "Let's school out of politics and let's work together so that our children can have access to education in all circumstances."

The Ministry invites the Departmental Directors of Education (DDE), inspectors and school directors to make all the arrangements for the regular operation of schools, as of Monday, February 18, 2019.
