Kabul, November 22 (Xinhua) — Afghanistan's Ministry of Education has built 1,315 school buildings across the country over the past four years as part of its ongoing efforts to improve access to education, the state-run Bakhtar News Agency reported on Saturday.

The ministry recently completed the construction of 179 modern and six religious schools in 21 provinces, with total expenditure exceeding $32 million.

The construction work was financed from the departmental budget, as well as support from various humanitarian organizations.

These projects aim to address the long-standing shortage of adequate school facilities, particularly in rural areas where children often studied in tents, damaged buildings or in the open air. –0–
