Some Of The World's Most Dangerous And Unusual Journeys To School. by Nobody: 4:46am On Sep 13, 2014 |
To the delight (or dismay) of millions, the school season is beginning in many countries throughout the world. But it’s important not to forget that, in some partsof the world, school can be a hard-won luxury. Many children throughout the world have to take the most incredible and unimaginable routes in order to receive the education that some of us may take for granted. This list we collected will show you just how determined some children can be when it comes to getting an education.According toUNESCO, progress in connecting children to schools has slowed down over the past five years. Areas that lack suitable school routes canoften flood, making it even harder for kidsto commute. Dangerous paths are one of the main reasons why many children decide to quit school.The solution might seem easy: build roads and bridges, buy buses and hire a driver. However, the lack of funds and recurring natural disasters in many countries make it difficult to provide children with the solutions they so desperately need. http://www.boredpanda.com/dangerous-journey-to-school/ 1. 5-Hour Journey Into The Mountains On A 1ft Wide Path To Probably The Most Remote School In The World, Gulu, China. 1 Like 5 Shares

Wow! Any price paid for Education is welcome, I hope the government of the respective countries will look inward and develop the remote part of the country to allow future generation easy access to basic amenities. These children are the real Heroes. 5 Likes |

I really want to know how many Nigerians will allow their children get education at all costs. Since there is no POLL Click 'LIKE' if you will allow your kids to go through this if it were in Nigeria Click 'SHARE' if you will not allow your kids to go. Me ooo. LaiLai! no child of mine will do this shi.t. What if you fall off and drown? Or worse still fall off the mountain?. I will rather employ a private tutor. 2 Likes 3 Shares |
