According to UNICEF 70% of primary-aged children are out of schools (UNICEF, 2017) which is very alarming, because it the world`s highest number of out of school children. The government of South Sudan has worked with partners to maintain the level of kids attending schools, specially at primary level. however, the goals are yet to be met.

The activities will incorporate tangible and intangible heritage for the people of Aweil plus other communities living in NBeGs.
