DRC is currently facing a national disaster. Half of all children do not go to school, and most of those who do are boys.
The Government budget for education is not enough to pay operational costs or teacher salaries, therefore parents are forced to pay high school fees.
Parents' main concern is feeding their children, so with limited money, education becomes secondary.
UNICEF is currently working in DRC to provide resources such as copy books, writing boards and desks to primary schools.
