Aden holds a workshop to assess educational system and reform it

The Gulf of Aden Foundation for Human Development and Social Services conducted a workshop to assess the educational system to reform it, under the auspices of the Governor of Aden Ahmed Hamid Lamlas and the local leadership of the Southern Transitional Council.

The two-day workshop, with the participation of 60 academics at the University of Aden and the education sector, focused on four topics: assessment of the reality and problems of the elementary and secondary education system, the factors for the deterioration of educational outcomes, both public and private, the negative consequences and risks resulting from the low level of education, and solutions and treatments.

Dr. Mahmoud Shayef, President of the Gulf of Aden Foundation, pointed out that the workshop is part of the Foundation’s keenness to establish a philosophical mechanism to reform the education system, as it is a priority in addressing ignorance and eradicating outdated concepts that hinder society, appreciating the concerns and support of the Southern Transitional Council leadership and the local authority in the capital, Aden, for the activities and programs of the foundation that aim to find radical solutions to many national matters.
