UNICEF: Queen Rania of Jordan in Argentina (Spanish)

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, 23 October 2008 Children at a UNICEF-supported school in Argentina received a royal visitor this week, when Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah of Jordan dropped by.

In her role as UNICEF's Eminent Advocate for Children, Queen Rania learned about a new programme that allows teachers, administrators and families to self-evaluate educational practices at the Paula Albarracín de Sarmiento school, and make quick changes when improvements are needed.

"The job of reforming education is one that never ends," said Queen Rania. "It is one that involves all partners. Teachers, students, families, communities, the government even the private sector has to be involved in the process."
