Paragraph
Paragraph text
On his visit to Côte d'Ivoire in 2012, the Special Rapporteur noted that in some western regions, an estimated 140,000 children had missed out on their education in 2011, due to insecurity and the destruction and pillaging of school buildings. Education was also disrupted in the centre and east of the country, and in Abidjan. He stressed that urgent measures were needed to ensure that children, some of whom had seen their education repeatedly disrupted, were provided with support to resume their education and make up the years of lost schooling.
