The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has suggested that Pakistan implement India’s ULLAS education program to help fix its struggling education system. The ULLAS program is designed to promote lifelong learning and teaches important skills such as financial and digital literacy.
This recommendation comes after Pakistan requested support from the ADB to improve its education system and reduce the number of children who are not attending school.
The ADB plans to provide technical assistance to Pakistan, which includes funding for school meal programs in underprivileged areas and creating a detailed registry of schools in regions that are prone to natural disasters.
This is part of Pakistan’s ongoing efforts to address its education emergency and ensure that more children receive quality education. The goal is to make education more accessible and to equip students with essential skills for their future.
