The Department of Education of Takhar Province and Afghan-German Cooperation have signed a contract for the construction of three girls' high schools. These schools will provide an adequate training environment for more than 14,000 students. Construction will take 30 months to complete, including renovating the existing building and building new ones. The Regional Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF) is assisting the provincial education directorate in implementing these projects. The Afghan-German partnership will fund the construction of these schools at a total cost of AFS 258 million through the German KfW Development Bank. "The new facilities will dramatically expand girls' access to education. In addition, during the hot weather, students would not have to spend less time under the tents," said Abdul Samia Abedyar, head of education in Takhar province. A total of eight buildings will be built in Taleghan and Rastaq. Each building will provide a total of 104 equipped office and branch offices. When construction is completed, the training period will increase from six to nine months per year, which will also improve the quality of education. Currently, the proportion of local schools' air condition is closed for six months annually. Increasing the training time will help reduce the daily lesson time from three to two. In case of natural disasters, earthquake resistant buildings will be used as temporary shelter.
